Re: [CentOS] installer with centosplus kernel?

Hi Johnny, Akemi,

If you are physically near the machine, just plugging in and mounting a thumb drive with the said RPMs copied to it and doing:

yum install <mounted_path>/kernel-plus-3.10.0-514.21.2.el7.centos.plus.x86_64.rpm

Should work

This sounds fairly easy; I'll try it next time I'm nearby (I only get to our data center every few weeks). There's a filesystem I'm not erasing for this install, so I can put the rpm there before I start putting C7 on it.

For a server of this ''vintage'' trying to roll my own driver disk (or even asking someone else to) might be more work than I'm willing to put in.

Thanks for the suggestions!
