How does one put centos on a laptop?
My understanding that laptops no longer come with optical drives.
Booting from an install disk would be difficult.
From https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops :
Preparation tasks
    Repartition your harddisk
    Backup your Master Boot Record (MBR)
    Modifying your bootloader

My understanding is that most laptops have at most one harddisk.
Can it really be unmounted for partitioning?

DD the CentOS ISO onto a USB stick. boot from USB, format HD with anaconda, install as desired, done.
