I agree.

Are you sure that the hardware is supported on CentOS?  I don't
recognize the specific model you mentioned, so I don't know what CPU,
motherboard, memory, etc. you have.

Have you tried timeout=0?

Have you checked all the PROM settings?

I'm just fishing here 'cuz nothing so far rings a bell....
