Yep. Just grab the 'netinstall' iso file and burn it. (It's about 7mb)

I just realized the old server had a cd rom not dvd..:(

well it boots onto my athlon64 system. what's weird is no centos dvd will install..they all die at that point. The centos 32 bit CD's also work fine. I guess something in this machine does not like centos dvd's. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm starting the centos 64 bit cd set torrent now but if i can find a solution in the next 6 hours(burning and downloading time) i'd be highly appreciative.

I have downloaded centos5 twice now, md5 verified..and even burned at 1x(that took forever). Any ideas as to why it refuses to see a disk that's there, properly burned, and verified?
If you have another server available, you can loop mount the dvd and share it by HTTP. In the images directory is a boot.iso that you can burn to CD and do network installs.

it's a bit more complex..i had to manually enter the mirror information..but that's exceedingly minor..<G. I ma not installing centos 5 64 bit. i would like to know why no 64 bit cd or dvd will not install.

Must be some driver glitch in the 64 bit installer kernel. The initial install sees your dvd drive, but when the full ramdisk gets loaded, the driver can't see it anymore.
