Scientific Linux use at ECSE

Currently we are using version SL51 on boxes like ecsewebprojects as well as in teaching labs.

Dan Grimm has kept and is updating kickstart.cfg file to allow boot from cd, install from http or ftp of a basic full install server sl51.

Notes will be added in here about things like upgrading [[the Pizzeria] [Simulation research on pizzeria]] and adding XFS support to the sl51 installation.

SL51 "contrib" repository has XFS stuff in it, just not sure how to get it in initial install. Might just have to do a bunch of yum updates after first install.

ecsewebprojects might need to know the info here https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/howto/tomcat5-sl5 to install tomcat5 as needed for webmathematica
