This is not really the right section of the forum for this. Tell us what version of CentOS you are attempting to use and I will move it to the correct place.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

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

It's BIOS (not UEFI) machine and i have 3T HDD. Does exist the way to dualboot CentOS and Windows? I mean to use HDD as GPT for all size access (MBR=only 2T). :!:
I can only do it only if HDD=MBR but can not do it if HDD=GPT. :!:
I try next things.
1) Install windows on HDD as MBR and then convert HDD to GPT and load windows from USB=BOOT
bcdboot d:\Windows /l en-us /s g:
bootsect /nt60 G: /mbr /force

but then after CentOS installation, Windows not loads. It's detects in grub2 but can not load tryed many times (with USB-boot plug on/off options)!!!!
2) Install CentOS first.
Than convert HDD to MBR, install Windows, convert HDD to GPT -
I can load Windows with USB=BOOT but can not load CentOS!!!!
/biosboot partition erases after MBR/GPT convert operations...
Does exist the way to restore grub after this operation? I tried - but can not find the solution.
Or may be does exist the way to install CentOS /boot and /biosboot or may be grub2 on USB and load it, but / and /home install on HDD? Tries also, but not solved.

P.S. tried to install DUET few times - but it not loads...

If it all works then there is nothing to install.
