I:
Introduction: centos is a modified version of Red Hat Enterprise Edition. It is a good server operating system and is free of charge.
II:
Required software:
1: The first thing we need is centos.
2: hard disk installation of a required software grub, is: http://download.gna.org/grub4dos/grub4dos-0.4.4-2009-03-07.zip
Preparations:
1: taking my computer as an example, my f disk is an empty partition with a total of 20 GB. I first Delete this partition in disk management. Then create a new 10g partition, leave 10g without any operation, and then divide the 10g, formatted as FAT32 format, then, place the six images downloaded to the root directory of the drive F.
2: Decompress grub, find the grldr file, and copy it to the C root directory. Decompress the isolinux folder in the first image of the six images and find the vmlinuz and initrd. imgfiles. Modify the boot of drive C. INI file (this file is not normally visible in the root directory of the C drive, please operate in the folder options to display it), add this sentence: C: /grldr = "centos ". Save
Installation Process:
1: After the above is ready, start the computer and enter the grub command line. input:
Kernel (hd0, 0)/vmlinuz
Initrd (hd0, 0)/initrd. img
Boot
2: Then there is the language and keyboard settings. The language should be simplified Chinese, and the keyboard should use us.
3: Select hard disk installation and select the partition where the image is located. Because I have a total of four partitions and the image is in the last partition, the list is the last partition.
4: select the partition to be installed and install it in the unpartitioned place. Because the drive is allocated 10 Gb, 10 Gb is left unpartitioned, that is, centos is installed in the 10 Gb unpartitioned location. In this way, all previous systems can be retained.
5: Press enter to complete the installation. (You do not need to select CD during the installation. It will be automatically installed)
