Hi,


Your method is similar to https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey. But after finishing, I restart my computer, and choose install centos via USB disk. But you can see mouse cursor, but the screen is black.


Why?


Is there anyone know how to solve the problem?


Thanks!


Regards


Andrew
