Whenever I want this I do a

yum install "*"

Actually, I have found that I can do a much more minimal install than 
before.  Before when you did minimal you got core and base.  Now, you 
can actually uncheck things out of base.  (Does my server really need 
pcmcia, I think not, out it goes)  So I now have a much more trim server 
than I used to get with minimal.
