I used the 6 CD iso's, looped back, copied to a dir, exported the dir, then burned a boot cd with the delivered diskboot.img

I was able to install the basic "Server" (NOT GUI) on 2 separate machines over the network. This is OT for the X issue, but speaks to the loopback/CD isos.

It's wasn't really an X issue as it also happened in text mode . I was just giving that as a point of reference in the install.

As it turns out, the problem is very plainly outlined in the release notes for CentOS. I read the UOP's notes as they generally have more detail. It took me a whole weekend, but I've learned my lesson :)
