This document is a graphic tutorial for beginners to install CentOS 7.

I. Preface

Recently, we need to learn about Docker because we need to build a lab architecture. Docker is completely dependent on the Linux system. So, with this article.

Linux has many release versions, such as the most famous RedHat, Ubuntu, CentOS, and Gentoo. Ubuntu's desktop system looks better than others, while RedHat is the first choice for servers, but it is a commercial version. Therefore, CentOS is selected.

II. Introduction to CentOS

CentOS (Community Enterprise Operating System) is one of the linux releases. It is compiled by Red Hat Enterprise Linux according to the open source code. Because of the same source code, some servers that require high stability use CentOS instead of the commercial version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The difference between the two lies in that CentOS does not contain closed source code software.
