'''Weight''': 5% of the overall grade
'''Due Date''': Week In class week 6 or 7 (in classask your professor for exact date)
== Create a new virtual machine ==
# It doesn't matter whether you use the Fedora CentOS Live CD or Installation DVD for this.
# The virtual machine name and the hostname for the machine must be your learn user ID.
# The regular user you create during installation must also be your learn user ID.
# Make sure that LVM is used for your new system, "Use all space" should take care of that.
The rest of this assignment should be done after the installation is completed successfully.
== LVM/fstab ==
# Add two more drives to your virtual machine, 1GB each.
# Add your new drives to the existing volume group.
Research the <code>rpm</code> and <code>yum</code> commands to:
# Verify the integrity of a package using <code>rpm</code> to see if any of its files have been altered since installation. (you will be asked to demonstrate this when your assignment is marked, it doesn't matter which package you choose)
# Add the [http://rpmfusion.org/ rpmfusion.org] repository to the yum configuration. (you will be asked to demonstrate installing a package from the rpmfusion repository when your assignment is marked)
# Add the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL EPEL] repository to the yum configuration. (this one has XFCE for CentOS 6)
== Alternate Software Installation ==
# Do the rest of the assignment (including the assignment submission) while running XFCE.
# Download and extract the source code for ISO Master.
# Compile and install it (you will need gtk2-devel installed).
