For the most part the modified version works just fine, but there are things about it that are not officially supported. It should be stated the the purpose of the live CD is NOT to install centos (unless you want to, as a convenience use the Network install provided on there, which is fully supported) ... but to use to test your hardware and to use as a recovery disc.
Thanks for all of your comments, really I was looking for an easy way of install Centos downloading one only CD....
If you are only doing a system or two, you can down the live cd and do a net install from a mirror close to you.
