I had earlier written about not being able to boot from the CentOS Userland image on my Raspberry Pi. It is a Model B+ 512MB from element14.
Well, CentOS 7 Userland only works on armhfp/armv7hl boards, like Rpi2, not Rpi1 (which is armv6hl ). In your first mail you mentioned rpi2, while now you mention the B+ model (with 512Mb, which is the rpi1). Can you confirm that it's indeed the rpi1 model ? If so you know now why it doesn't work.
Yes, it is an rpi1. Are there plans to ever port CentOS Userland to to armv6hl? Also, would you consider updating the wiki page to make it more clear about which models are supported? That would save some frustration for people like me who find the page when searching for "centos on rpi".
And the wiki does say armv7. I guess it expects people who work and play with arm SOC know which ARM ver they have...
And the image at http://mirror.centos.org/altarch/7/isos/armhfp/ is for the RPi2.
I mean, I would like support here for the Kirkwood board, so I could run it on my Pogoplug. I am running RSEL7 on it instead.
Raspberry made quite a todo about their RPi2 being armv7 as a leap forward in things...
