You need to install cpanel as you normally would

The cpanel install will happen on the background on firstboot if the server is connected to the internet.

You can check /var/log/cpanel-*.log

So you're saying there's nothing in /var/log/ that begins with cpanel after your initial reboot?

Just to confirm: you have purchased a cPanel/WHM license, correct?

You can't directly execute log files...
Try this:
tail /var/log/cpanel-autoinstall.1218645501.log

What is the difference between this iso and the official one?
Only that it automatically starts the installation of cpanel/whm?
Or this is the most suitable centos version?

Thx for answers.

This ISO is for CentOS 5.0. It automatically installs CentOS in a cPanel/WHM-friendly way and installs cPanel/WHM upon the first reboot.

From CentOS 5.0, you can upgrade to the latest CentOS version: 5.2.

Thanks, that's good.
Could you please mention how to upgrade OS to 5.2 after the install?

[NightRider]

# yum update

this command will be ok?

[addy]

Use yum upgrade instead of usual yum update.

Should I enable DNS Server in package manager, after time zone selection?
