Re: [Swarm-Support] I made step-by-step RedHat install/test instructions

[Kanagaraj Krishna]

Hi,
   Thanks for this contribution. Anyway i have a question..........although 
this is not related to SWARM. What do you  mean by irritaiting packages. I want 
to uninstall packages that i don't need to improve my os performance. My usage 
of Red Hat is for programming only. Any advise on this. Thanks

Regards,
Kana
