setup and test the server
Download the server tarball and unpack it:
[fedora@lovelock]$ su - openerp
[openerp@lovelock]$ cd 6
[openerp@lovelock]$ wget http://www.openerp.com/download/stable/source/openerp-server-6.0.0.tar.gz
[openerp@lovelock]$ tar xvf openerp-server-6.0.0.tar.gz
Install dependencies for the server:
[fedora@lovelock]$ sudo yum install python-lxml.i686 python-mako python-dateutil python-psycopg2 pychart pydot pytz python-vobject python-reportlab PyYAML python-imaging
NOTE: to generally test openerp releases, you don't need to perform a complete installation. Inside the /bin directory, in the untarred openerp archive, you can run "opnenerp-server.py". Running openerp-server.py will also notify you for every missing dependence.
[openerp@lovelock]$ cd openerp-server-6.0.0/bin
[openerp@lovelock]$ ./openerp-server.py"

init scripts
I've found these scripts on-line, optimized for CentOS Linux, so thanks to the author for avoid me to rewrite both from scratch. I've made few modifications there, and now they works on Fedora.
Put these files in /etc/init.d/ directory and give "x" permissions to the both.
Download (right mouse click and "Save link as..."):
[root@lovelock]# cd /etc/init.d/
[root@lovelock]# wget http://www.simoneroselli.eu/files/2011/11/openerp-server.txt
[root@lovelock]# wget http://www.simoneroselli.eu/files/2011/11/openerp-web.txt
