CentOS: Install CentOS v7 and NethServer

Install Base CentOS System

1. Install CentOS using the CentOS6 (64 template)
2. Use a downloaded iso for the CnetOS 7 from:
   http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/sites/mirror.centos.org/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1503-01.iso
3. Proceed through the install process ensuring to process all the "spokes of the wheel" i.e. setup

Install Networking

CentOS doesn't enable setup by default so you need to do that:

1. Find the network interface name: ip a
   which will produce a result like:
   2: etho: <BROADCAST,MULTI...
   where 'eth0' is the name
2.  Edit the corresponding config file:
   vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
3. Paste in DHCP:
   DEVICE=eth0
   HWADDR=[MAC ADDRESS]
   NM_CONTROLLED=yes
   ONBOOT=yes
   BOOTPROTO=dhcp
   or for static address:
   BOOTPROTO=static
   IPADDR=192.168.1.10
   NETMASK=255.255.255.0
   GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
   DNS1=8.8.8.8
   DNS2=4.2.2.2
4. Stop and start the service:
   service network stop
   service network start
