Centos 6.5 Minimal Iso



Below are high speed CentOS 6 Download links direct from the mirror and further down the page are CentOS 6 torrent links. I recommend downloading the CentOS 6 minimal ISO and installing additional packages from YUM, this will save mirror bandwidth and download time. If you require the CentOS 6 DVD ISO then I recommend downloading the torrent below this will prevent the large ISO files corrupting during download.

CentOS CentOS 6.5 x8664 DVD(.ISO) 다운로드(Download) 및 설치(install) 방법, 설치 옵션 설명(Minimal, Desktop 등) CentOS / Server. For example, CentOS 6.5 is built from the source packages of RHEL 6 update 5 (also known as RHEL version 6.5), which is a so-called 'point release' of RHEL 6. 26 Starting with version 7.0, CentOS version numbers also include a third part that indicates the monthstamp of the source code the release is based on.

This post is updated every time a point release is announced, meaning you will always have the most recent CentOS 6 ISO files (currently this page contains CentOS 6.2 Download Links).

Please see our tutorial on How to install CentOS 6 for Servers and Desktops for a walk through of the install process.

Minimal CentOS 6 Download (recommended)

As mentioned above I highly recommend the minimal CentOS 6 download, after / during install you can install up to date packages directly from the mirror via YUM.

The links below are for CentOS 6.2 minimal ISO:

Below are the download links for the install version of the CentOS 6.2 DVD ISO’s, the install is split across two DVD’s. I only recommend installing the DVD’s if you do not have access to the Internet during the installation process.

Summary0006884: UEFI boot of CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso (& CentOS-6.5-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso) doesn't work
DescriptionBooting an IBM x3650 M4 server using its IMM (Integrated Management Module) Virtual Media, loaded with CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso (or CentOS-6.5-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso) in UEFI mode fails.
Instead of starting Anacoda, a grub prompt ('grub>') shows up.
Entering 'kernel /images/pxeboot/vmlinuz' at the prompt leads to the error '18 : Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS'.
Steps To Reproduce-Load & connect IMM Virtual Media with CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso
-Configure Server Firmware to boot using UEFI (System Settings, Legacy Support, BBS Boot: Disable).
-Boot from (virtual) CD/DVD-drive
I'm not able to try a physical disk & drive.
Additional Information-UEFI boot from IMM Virtual Media basically works (tried with grml64-full_2013.09.iso and CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso).
-A re-created image (centos65.iso) using…
mkdir CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso.d
mount -oloop CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso.d
cd CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso.d
xorriso -as mkisofs -U -A centos65 -V centos65 -volset centos65 -J -joliet-long -r -v -T -x ./lost+found -o ../centos65.iso -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -eltorito-alt-boot -e images/efiboot.img -no-emul-boot .
…works.
Command inspired by: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Pjones/BootableCDsForBIOSAndUEFI#New_UEFI.2FBIOS_hybrid_method
-'dumpet -i centos65.iso' output attached.
-Used xorriso version 1.2.2 on OpenSuSE 12.3. What exact command is used to create the official CentOS ISOs?
-Interesting observation: ark (KDE archive tool) displays a filesize of 0 bytes for images/pxeboot/vmlinuz in CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso instead of 3,9 MiB in centos65.iso (please see attached screenshots).
In loopback-mounted CentOS-6.5-x86_64-minimal.iso:
ls -l images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
