CentOS

Oh cmon Trevor, if it was the host why would he bother giving you all that detail about windows server? Anyway, OP I think you should use fixed size rather than dynamic for that virtual machine. Dynamic disk is slow as well. I don't think this whole thing is surprising because Windows is known to ho...

I know this looks pointless as you can already use dd=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdXY bs=446 count=1 to force uefi-only on any bootable disk. This command clears out MBR boot configuration while keeping partition table intact. Without boot sector no legacy boot basically. However, my hybrid EFI motherboard d...

Thank you so much.

No, the dvd works on other PC. For some reason it does not work on this PC. It's an old gigabyte hybrid efi motherboard. Not a shock that it's causing issues. It might as well be the old dvd drive not being supported by CentOS somehow. Ubuntu and Manjaro dvds work fine with it. The DVD drive was bei...

No i have 3 folders, i never managed to install CentOS.
I have:
BOOT
Manjaro
Microsoft.

I realised changing disk label does exactly what happens to me.
I now think this is somehow related to label.

After installing CentOS 7 (and presumably CentOS 8), boot order changes automatically to first boot from OS. It can only be reproduced with UEFI boot and in different hardware types. Why is this happening? How could it be avoided? Thank you Yeah that happens on some computers. That's an UEFI thing....

As i stated on my other topic i get emergency shell at boot.
Which commands do i need to run to see a full log and also which boot parameters?

I remove quiet and when i get to emergency shell i run
journalctl --catalog --boot
is there anything else i can do?

This place is like a wasteland. It's almost impossible to get any help here.
I know CentOS is pretty popular and it's being used on a large scale so how so?

I manually set inst stage2 entry to (hd0,msdos2)/images/installer.img but it still hangs up on the same place, does not complain about SCSI anymore though.

I think i've located the problem.

When i ls from grub on problematic pc with only the dvd drive plugged in:
(hd) (hd0,msdos2)
On the other working fine pc:
(cd) (cd0,msdos2)

Is hd for hard drives ? Can this be the root of this problem?
