See this FAQ entry:

Had read this FAQ many times and clicked "Configure Networking" andselected system eth0 and connect automatically. Bottom line is that it booted once but not a second time after logging off. Mentioned this I think. So that is where I have difficulties. In FAQ 2 above, the 'will start on boot in the future" is what id doesn't do. I can re-install again if that's necessary and hope it works this time.
If you can log in and use an editor in character mode you can fix it. The change needed in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 will be obvious once you get that far. But, it might be easier to reinstall if you don't know how to do that. Since it is a new install anyway you won't lose anything.
In the CentOS forum under Software Support is my thread: Centos 6.4 won't install on reboot. Post number 27 or 28 lists the output I got from FAQ2 above from cat /etc /sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 My guess is the most important line there is ONBOOT=yes Anyway, there are suggestions in the forum which I will follow and then post the results back to the forum. Thanks again.
