The minimum space required to install CentOS 7 is 10 gigabytes[1], although you certainly will want more. Windows 7 is going to need more space, but with 2TB, you’re could easily just split it down the middle and have plenty left over. I would suggest a separate /home partition, to make upgrading easier (see other threads[2] on this list). If you plan on running a service on the system, a separate partition for that data might also be prudent. Also, you appear to have a broken keyboard. I suggest checking whether any of your punctuation keypresses are generating characters. 1. http://wiki.centos.org/About/Product 2. http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2015-June/thread.html#152717 -- Jonathan Billings <billings@xxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
