To be fair, an accurate description of what you're doing would be
worthwhile, too.

What I described was plenty enough for anyone who's been through the netinstall configuration before. There's no point in explanation a simple gui for those who don't what I'm talking about.



I downloaded
http://mirror.sfo12.us.leaseweb.net/centos/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-NetInstall-1511.iso.

I installed netinstall without a problem.


Its sha256sum is
9ed9ffb5d89ab8cca834afce354daa70a21dcb410f58287d6316259ff89758f5, which
matches sha256sum.txt.

Well, I prefer md5sums, so pretty much the same. Moreover, k3b, the app I use to burn CDs talks md5sums, not shasums.


I booted from the ISO, selected "installation source" and entered
"mirror.sfo12.us.leaseweb.net/centos/7/isos/x86_64/" in the field to the
right of the "http://"; prefix.

Yeah, I did all that exactly the same. It's pretty idiot-proof for just about anyone to do all that correctly.



Anaconda downloaded the package list and allowed me to select package
groups.

And that means success... which I didn't get... because something in netinstall wasn't working right. See my response in this thread to what I wrote to Fred. You've given me a lot of good and pivotal help and info in past here, I appreciate all that very much. That's for sharing my frustration. Believe me, I've had a lot myself.
