Its generally easier to install Windows first, then set aside unpartioned space to install CentOS on after the windows install is complete.My other post in this thread tells you how to free up some space on the drive (after a Windows install) into which you can install Centos. This one tells you how to install Centos-7 into that space AND make it dual-boot with Windoze. The default Centos installation(s) do not recognize the windows installation as a bootable alternative (or at least mine didn't) and therefore do not automatically give you dual-boot capability. But here's how to solve that (I'm pretty sure this works only for Centos-7): 1. so the first step is to go ahead and install Centos in the free space. 2. boot it up, run "yum update" to update any packages that have been updated since your CD image was made. 3. install the epel repo for your version of Centos (presumably you're going to install Centos-7). "yum install -y epel-release" 4. Do "yum install ntfs-3g ntfsprogs" 5. Then run: "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" and voila! you've now got a dual-boot Centos-7 and Windoze! do not enter the quotes when typing in the recipes above. they are here only to separate the commands from my blithering. Note tat you'll need to be the root user for everything from step 2 onward. -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex at fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "For the word of God is living and active.
