Interesting,

We actually back-revved from T30 to T27 to get Red Hat to work. So, we'd have to go back to T30 to get CentOS to work over RHEL?

Hi,

TL;DR You need the latest firmware.

We have 2S ThunderX running CentOS 7.3. It didn't work out of the box, but after updating firmware it worked.

Has anyone gotten 7.3 to install on Cavium ThunderX? We’ve gotten Red Hat to install just fine, but we’re having problems with hanging when trying to boot from our repo.  Has anyone noticed any differences between the two distros and supported EFI?
