Hello, I have a HP Pavilion p2 1033wb. I has a 3 core Vision AMD E-300 Processor Dual Core runs at 3.2 GHZ. CentOS will run ok with this processor won't it Echolink told me I would have no problem running there program with it. Probably a dumb question but just checking. Thanks, KF7TQV

Try booting a Centos Live CD on it and see what happens.

Should be the same as upstream: https://hardware.redhat.com/ But if it is not there it doesn't mean it won't work - it may not have been tested.

Anything that runs RedHat should run CentOS

The chipset, power management, video, network, and disk controllers are as important as the CPU. as long as thats a i686 or x86_64 CPU, the processor should be fine

I can run Debian on my Aspire One 522 with an AMD C-50 processor, but I couldn't get CentOS to install properly.
The E-300 processor won't be a problem; the rest of the hardware might be.

In that case, you might want to try Stella: li.nux.ro/stella/ and see if that helps. There is LiveCD also.
Stella has some drivers from ElRepo integrated, so if regular CentOS (install CD or LiveCD) does not run on your hardware, give it a try.

Thanks for the suggestion. I was able to install and run Stella on my Acer Aspire One 522.
I'm changing the Subject and adding "Partially Solved" for future reference. (I consider it only partially solved because Stella is a CentOS derivative rather than CentOS itself.)
