So,

1. I installed a minimal CentOS-7.
2. I then installed epel-release.
3. I then installed etckeeper from epel.
4. I then ran yum update -y.
5. I then rebooted (kernel update).
6. I then ran "yum groups install "X Window System"
7. I then ran "yum groups "MATE Desktop"
8. I then ran startx.

Can you confirm line 7 above? It might be a typo.

Typos on lines 6 and 7. Mate was installed successfully along with the X Windo System.
