You can also customise your installs via pre-populating the persistent config file, /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc with overriding variables instead of directly editing centmin.sh file BEFORE running the the betainstaller.sh. See examples discussed on the forums here.

Centmin Mod installed via Git

Recommended way is via above curl installer.sh or betainstaller.sh commands even if you need to customise your centmin.sh settings - you can do that via pre-populating the persistent config file, /etc/centminmod/custom_config.inc with overriding variables instead of directly editing centmin.sh file.

Type as root user in SSH these commands, Centmin Mod will have it's install setup at /usr/local/src/centminmod. Replace branchname=123.08stable with branchname=123.09beta01 if you want to install the beta version.

yum -y install git wget nano bc unzip
cd /usr/local/src
branchname=123.09beta01
git clone -b ${branchname} --depth=1 https://github.com/centminmod/centminmod.git centminmod
cd centminmod

Then to install either type

for menu mode run centmin.sh and select menu option 1 to install

./centmin.sh

or for CLI install mode

./centmin.sh install
