groupinstall option in yum is very useful in FC3 when you want to install a group of packages which you haven not installed during the initial installation from CD-ROM or DVD-ROM.
To see the list of available group packages, use grouplist as following:
[tchung@tchung-fc3 ~]$ sudo yum grouplist Setting up Group Process Setting up Repo: base repomd.xml 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Setting up Repo: updates-released repomd.xml 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 comps.xml 100% |=========================| 591 kB 00:01 Installed Groups: Administration Tools Compatibility Arch Support Editors GNOME Desktop Environment GNOME Software Development Games and Entertainment Graphical Internet Graphics Mail Server Network Servers Office/Productivity Printing Support Server Configuration Tools Sound and Video System Tools Text-based Internet X Software Development X Window System x86 Compatibility Arch Development Support Available Groups: Authoring and Publishing Compatibility Arch Development Support DNS Name Server Development Tools Engineering and Scientific FTP Server KDE (K Desktop Environment) KDE Software Development Legacy Network Server Legacy Software Development MySQL Database News Server PostgreSQL Database Web Server Windows File Server XFCE XFCE Software Development Done [tchung@tchung-fc3 ~]$
Suppose you have not installed "Web Server" packages yet.
Here is how you can install them using groupinstall option via yum in FC3.
