I'm a newcomer to CentOS.
Fedora 14 was the last Fedora version I managed to make work.
Fedora 16 I couldn't install at all.
Fedora 17 installed, but I couldn't make it work right.
I'd been trying to do media-less installs because
Fedora wouldn't read my DVDs anymore.

Well, pretty simple... You don't have the correct disc "already" inserted.
Its a netinstall, hence the "net" so it needs the net. Its also only a couple

Hi,
I just tried to install CentOS 6.3 netinstall and got the error

How can I insert a disc which is already inserted? What am I missing?

Using USB DVD drive, and installing from installation DVD would solve this.
Once you install all needed packages/system, you can find the pci ID of
the Ethernet NIC and download/

Hi, Tom --
Thanks. :-) Didn't work, though -- those key combinations got me to console
screens but not with an actionable prompt. I tried typing commands into them
anyway, but CentOS netinstall continued to try to talk to wlan0.

Hi, John --
Thanks. :-) Looks like it'd be Fn + F3 on this one, but I suspect they set
it up to work that way with Windows. There's no light to be seen anywhere,
and pressing it made no difference to CentoOS netinstall.

Hi Jeff,
You can use Alt + F3 or Alt + F4 once you're inside the installer to open a

If you disable the wlan0 interface before the network part of the installer you
should be ok.

Hi, Folks --
I'm setting up an Acer Aspire 5250 as a Christmas gift, CentOS 6 netinstall
insists on trying to configure wlan0 but I'm using a wired DSL connection,
consequently netinstall fails and only offers the option to Retry.
How can I get it to bypass the wlan0 idea and go straight to eth0.
ok, playing around with netstat I figure all the ports that need to be open in
iptables for this thing to work, I figure having the firewall down was too big
of a risk so why not figuring out the ports and opening them in iptables and
sharing the knowledge with you guys. The following ports are

Would it be hard to have a little patience?

Dear CentOS community,
I have install centos via CD, DVD and Directly off the net via http and FTP.
Now I want to do a NFS install from a local server and a client. Both, client
and server are in the same vlan 10.14.10.0/255.255.255.0.
The server has a static 10.14.10.15 address and the client
