greetings.
while attempting to install c7, i got lost at 'repository' entry.
i canceled, loaded centos.org, looked for help for installing c7,
but did not find.
i know, i did not look in right place.
if such has been posted, i missed.
so what/where is 'the right place'?
much appreciate some help.
What are you exactly searching for?
excuse my prior terseness.
i pulled;
CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-NetInstall.iso
"burned" it to a usb memory stick with;
su -c "dd if=CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-NetInstall.iso of=/dev/sdd"
rebooted, to usb, answered all questions up to screen where an
entry asked for a "repository".
not having committed to memory, or, having written down any
repositories urls, i quit install.
in searching centos.org and wiki.centos.org thru docs and faqs, i
found not install instructions for centos 7, other than using;
CentOS-BootService-ipxe.iso
which i pulled, "burned" to usb memory stick, rebooted to usb and
ended up with about 4 lines and a notice of a failure, which i did
not right down.
one thing of note, net install iso did write a new boot with 4
options, 2 of which allow me to boot into centos 6.6.
in time of doing other things and pulling emails a few minutes ago,
i did return to centos.org and c&p a repo url and printed it out.
i was intending to reboot after pulling emails and noted your reply
and i am replying to see what your suggestions may be, and;
thank you for replying.
If you are new to Centos, it really is best to download the DVD. The
net-install is really designed for people who put up their own server for
doing 200 installs in one building. The ipxe.iso that you tried absolutely
requires a special server on your local network. Yes, you can do a single
install with the net install, but it should be your 10th or 20th, not your
first.
I hope you can download the DVD and enjoy Centos 7. "Get Centos 7 Now" to
"DVD ISO" to the list, and pick any link off of the list. The DVD will be
quite self-explanatory. The only caveat is to make sure you go into the
link for your network card and configure it. Otherwise Centos will start
up with the network card turned off.
