Re: [RDD] Cent OS
Dells and HP machines are my preference. Had one HP who's internal sound card gave me issues, but never installation issues. I had a DELL XE give me stability issues under Ubuntu. It's been fine with Centos.

Re: [RDD] Cent OS
Hi, How are you trying to install CentOS? Is it CentOS7? I've found that a problem that I had with CentOS 7.6 went away by using CentOS 7.5 (it may have been 7.5 drop down to 7.4 - everything merges into the past). Try with an older sub version of the installer. It will still update to the latest once you have installed it. I created my installer on USB by downloading the .iso file and then doing this dd if=CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1708.iso of=/dev/sdX where X is the USB drive. This has worked for me so far.

Re: [RDD] Cent OS
I was installing from DVD-ROM drive. I then tried from USB and after some further mucking around in BIOS it came up with a similar error but it's now allowing the GUI for install now from USB instead of ending at an emergency shell.
