CentOS 7 Install on VM

Post by derbarbarian » 2015/04/20 05:02:55

Hey guy's I setup a VM and installed CentOS 7 and didn't have any hiccups until I rebooted the machine after the install finished, upon restarting this is all I get (included picture below.) So I'm not sure if something in the install went wrong, or what I did to screw it up, It's been a few years since I've dabbled my fingers in this so I'm a complete novice at this point. So any help would be greatly appreciated!

Those are just information messages and not the source of whatever the problem is. Interrupt the boot process when you see the grub menu and edit the kernel command line (hit Esc then 'e' to edit the current entry, find the linux16 or linuxefi line relating to the current kernel). Remove rhgb quiet from it and then boot up in verbose mode and perhaps you will see more information about whatever the problem is.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
