Can we also challenge this "torrents are untrustworthy" attitude. You can be given an ISO from a shady character under a railway bridge, and as long as the ISO matches the checksums you can source directly from the CentOS https site (https://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7), it's as good as any other copy that's ever been in existence. Why is a torrent source any worse than a copy off any of the official mirrors? Also, why not just make your life easy and do a netinstall? That way you don't have to try to do anything you're not comfortable with. jh
