What operating system is this for? You've posted in the CentOS 6 section but CentOS 6 is dead so there won't be any fixes for it.

You list packages there that belong to Fedora 20 which is also well out of date and dead as a dodo.

And yet, you're using dnf which didn't come in until CentOS 8.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
