What did you try?

What is "atom software"?
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

This is GUI editor app to get away from vi to create files...... The big problem is the default setting for this OS, console
systemctl get-default

which returns as :
non-graphical systems output would normally be
multi-user.target

you need to change to
systemctl set-default graphical.target

I have changed the centos 7 to graphical.target as the default..... Then I install the GNOME Desk top....... How can I invoke GNOME so it will emulate a GUI from booting. Instead of getting the console?
