[PVE-User] More templates for Proxmox - CentOS 5.5?

[Bruce B]

Thanks guys. Amazing input here. I will look at those.

The templates listed for CentOS don't mention the minor version number (e.g.
Show only v5 instead v5.1, v5.4, or v5.5). What is with that? Does that mean
if CentOS-5-* is updated by "yum -y update" then it would upgrade to
CentOS-5.5-*?

Thanks
