Re: trouble installing centos 6.8

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Looks like my problem was with the downloads. I would download a file 3 different times and get 3 different checksums :( Now I finally got one that matches the checksums listed on the download site, and it appears to be happily installing now.

Thank you all

I have personally always had the best luck by installing the Live CD, and then customizing the installation from there.  This also gives you a quick way to test if the hardware you are installing to is compatible with the version of Centos that you're installing since the Live CD boots and comes up with a working desktop or it does not.

In fact and coincidentally, I just set up a Centos 6.8 image on VirtualBox last night using the Live CD with no issues.
