== Create a new virtual machine ==
# It doesn't matter whether you use the CentOS Live CD or ,Installation DVD , or Network Install method for this.# The virtual machine name and the hostname for the machine must be your learn Seneca user ID.# The regular user you create during installation must also be your learn Seneca user ID.
# Make sure that LVM is used for your new system.
# 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)
# Demonstrate the install, run, and removal of any rpm package. This means during the demonstration you will show the download, install, and run of any rpm-based package, after doing so show the removal of that package proving that previously installed rpm package is no longer available after removal.
# Add the [https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL EPEL] repository to the yum configuration. (this one has XFCE for CentOS 7)
== Alternate Software Installation ==
Review the <code>yum group*</code> commands and use them to:
# Find and install the XFCE dektop Cinnamon desktop environment discussed in . Feel free to use the following article: [http://www.osnews.com/storypower of Google.php/5478/XFce-4--A-Refreshingly-Solid-Desktop XFCE Review]# Do the rest of the assignment (including the assignment submission) while running XFCECinnamon.
[[OPS235 Lab 3 |Lab 3]] contains practice in compiling source code. It is recommended to study these procedures for compiling and installing software from source code and use them to:
# Download and extract the source code for ISO Master.
# Compile and install it (you will need gtk2-devel installed).

* The virtual machine name and the hostname for the machine must be your learn user ID followed by '''-mint'''. For example asmith15-mint
* Install Linux Mint in the new virtual machine.
