Thanks Gerald,
Try append console=ttyS0,38400,n8 For using serial port 0, and 38400 baud
I can only append it to the iso (as I don't have a keyboard attached). How should it be appended to the iso ? I know how to open the iso and change it; to be more accurate, I should add these parameters to the isolinux.cfg. But then, how to create the new iso with the new isolinux.cfg ? Is it but mkisofs ? and it case it is, with which parameters exactly ? Regards, IB

Hello, I have an external USB cdrom ; I have a machine which does not have a VGA card and not a standard IDE socket so you cannot connect a CDROM internally to it ; it has USB port; I want to install CentOS using an external USB cdrom on this machine, through the serial port.
Is there a way to do it ? I am quite desperate about it.
The motherboard DOES enable configuing the BIOS to boot from a USB device. Regards, IB
