CentOS dev team will, in next few days release several general purpose CD's Like Minimal server CD and Minimal Installation CD. LiveCD should also be coming soon and hopefully it will have "Install on HDD" option to help you install from CD device.

CentOS 6 was not really intended for slower systems, none of the newer distros are. CentOS 6 kernel for example does not support 586 CPU's.

Best advice for people with CD's is please be patient and wait several days untill additional media is created.
