The version is CentOS-6.0-i386-bin-DVD.iso With each virtual machine I get this result at the beginning of the installation: "This kernel requires the following features not present on the cpu pae" "Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU" I undeerstand that perhaps the computer processor is too old. But is there a patch to overpass this problem?
Hrrm, seems as if the ISO may be using a PAE kernel by default. PAE is a kernel that will be able to make use of more than 4GB of RAM with i686.
Ah, I see it's apparently a decision by RH. I assume there's some logic in it, though I don't know what it is.

See if it's possible to add PAE to the machine settings in VirtualBox. Settings=>System=>Processor
There's a checkbox for PAE. Try checking that off and seeing if it helps.
