Centos 6.6 minimal install to Desktop

I am going with Centos 6.6 instead of 7.1 because I have Michael Jhang's book which covers version 6

Burn the minimal install CD
Install centos
reboot
At the root prompt


Enable Networking
Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and change 
onboot=yes
bootproto=dhcp  

#chkconfig network on
#service network restart

check if u have internet connection

next 

# yum -y groupinstall "Desktop" "Desktop Platform" "X Window System" "Fonts"
optionally
# yum -y groupinstall "Graphical Administration Tools"

# yum -y groupinstall "Internet Browser"

# yum -y groupinstall "General Purpose Desktop"

# yum -y groupinstall "Office Suite and Productivity"

# yum -y groupinstall "Graphics Creation Tools"
