[OCLUG-Tech] RHEL/Centos compatibility

Could it be the NIC giving you trouble? It would need to support PXEboot. If so, you would just add a PCI NIC. But the onboard LAN should work fine. Do you need to enable PXEboot in the BIOS?

I found it difficult to install Centos from USB key. But a DVD install should work fine.

I bought a very nice Intel DZ87KLT-75K (Haswell-DT Z87 chipset) with support for the Intel core i7-4770K processor and when I try to install CentOS 6.5 (using the NetInstall iso), I get stonewalled: "This hardware (or a combination therefore) is not supported by CentOS. For more information on supported hardware, please refer to http://www.centos.org/hardware"; However, that link (and the subsequent RH link) are much less than helpful.
