<snip> This it is a very easy process to create an installable usb key: 1. Download the iso file from a mirror. 2. Check the sha256sum with this from the command line: sha256sum <isoname> 3. verify the output is the same as this list (for CentOS-6.7): http://mirror.centos.org/centos-6/6.7/isos/x86_64/sha256sum.txt.asc 4. Find the name of your USB stick, from the command line

Hi, Folks -- I'm setting up an Acer Aspire 5250 as a Christmas gift, CentOS 6 netinstall insists on trying to configure wlan0 but I'm using a wired DSL connection, consequently netinstall fails and only offers the option to Retry. How can I get it to bypass the wlan0 idea and go straight to eth0...? Thanks, -- -- Jeff -- <http://www.wellnow.com> "There's nothing

Trying to specify the "installation source" in the configuration of netinstall for centos 7 (7.1). Three places on the web said mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/ But that configuration page probes, then it says, "Error setting up base repository". What's the magic needed? Also, if anyone knows specs for epel and others, they might help too. Thanks.
