→Installation instructions for Centos 7
# '''Note:''' There are two versions of OPS235 lab1 if you are using for reference for either a SATA removable hard drive or a Solid State Drive (SSD). Both labs are identical in basic content, except the SSD labs uses VMware Workstation 12 Pro to create the host machine. For an SSD drive, you would also need to setup nested VMs when you setup KVM in lab2 (i.e. follow instructions in OPS235 labs CAREFULLY).
# Download and burn on a DVD a copy of the Centos 7 installation DVD (64 bit edition) from the Centos web site or the Belmont server.<br>'''Note:''' we'll be using the 64 bit version of Centos because all of our lab computers are equiped with Intel 64 bit mainboards and CPUs, and any computer you bought in the last few years for yourself will be 64bit as well.
#* '''Seneca's mirror of Centos:''' http://belmont.senecacollege.ca/pub/centos/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-16111708.iso<br>This is very fast, but is only accessible from within Seneca's network - you can't access this from home. You can burn this disc on the machines in the Open Lab.)<br>

# Insert your removable harddrive into the machine and boot from the DVD.
