I tried dd-ing the ISO onto a USB stick, as suggested in
<http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7>,
but it didn't boot.
Did anyone have better luck with this?
In any case, I got it working by running livecd-iso-to-disk
on a Fedora-20 laptop.
I've found before that this is the best program around
for the purpose.
But I've 2 queries about this:
1. Why isn't this program available on CentOS?
2. I find it strange the using a USB stick
seems to be regarded as an out-of-the-ordinary idea.
Are people still burning CDs or DVDs? And if so why?
I would have thought the time had come
to make USB sticks the standard installation method?
Certainly it should be treated on a par with DVDs.
I have two HP MicroServers running under CentOS,
and these don't come with a DVD drive.
I assumed this was becoming more or less standard?
