I do not know from the CDs,
I think you can do this.


   # yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"
or
   # yum groupinstall "KDE (K Desktop Environment)"

depending on what you want, Gnome or KDE,
and then check which packages were going to be installed, and look for
that rpms on your CDs.

After that,
rpm -Uvh package1.rpm
and so on.

do not forget to change your inittab to start on the runleve 5
(Graphics) and reboot your Vmachine.

I have done with CentOs, and Debian from the web, and after changing
the inittab file all was OK.

regards,

Guillermo.
