Building LAMP server from scratch (build a server with compiled LAMP from CentOS mini)

Hello everyone,

I would like to setup a lamp server from a minimal distro and to compile PHP, MySQL and Apache myself.

I have chosen CentOS minimal for the OS and I am trying to build the stack by hand... But well, it appears I need some help!

First: I am looking for good and recent tutorials on how to compile the latest version of PHP/MySQL5.1/Apache.
I am interested in best practices for the compilation of latest source code of these programs.
I would also like to understand all the configuration options of the LAMP in order to customize a maximum the server to the needs of the website it is going to host!

Secondly: and more practically I am stuck at adding up the Network packages necessary for a up and running server on to CentOS minimal...
So I would basically need a step by step how to build a server from CentOS minimal ?

If you are still not too scared to help a fast learning beginner, this is where I am stuck...
For the time being :
1) I install ContOS mini on a virtual machine
2) log in as root
3) dhclient eth0
4) yum install system-config-network-tui
5) yum update
I can update my system...
But now how do I configure the network so I can ping the host and get access to my local virtual network?
It seems I might need system-config-firewall-tui as well?
Should I setup a static address instead of dhcp?
Please note that my host runs Fedora 17 and I use the latest kvm and libvirt, virt-manager tools.

Many thanks for your help and keep up the good work!
Cheers,

freddie50

yum-builddep

yum-builddep(1) 														   yum-builddep(1)

NAME

       yum-builddep - install missing dependencies for building an RPM package

SYNOPSIS

       yum-builddep package

DESCRIPTION

       yum-builddep  is a program which installs the RPMs needed to build the specified package.  The source RPM for the specified package must be
       available in a Yum repository (which will be automatically enabled, if it is disabled) or it can be a local source RPM file.

EXAMPLES

       Download and install all the RPMs needed to build the kernel RPM:
	      yum-builddep kernel

FILES

       As yum-builddep uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the information, it relies on YUM configuration for its  default  values  like  which
       repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:

       /etc/yum.conf
       /etc/yum/repos.d/
       /var/cache/yum/

SEE ALSO

       yum.conf (5)
       http://yum.baseurl.org/

AUTHORS

       See the Authors file included with this program.

BUGS

       There  are  of  course no bugs, but should you find any, you should first consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if
       unsuccessful in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.  To file a bug  use	http://bugzilla.redhat.com
       for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
