## Introduction
CentOS (Community ENTerprise Operating System) is a free and open-source Linux distribution based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). It is widely used for servers and enterprise environments due to its stability and long-term support.
In this repository, you will find comprehensive details on how to install CentOS. If you are ready to get started, you can check out the [Releases section](https://github.com/tindupaa/CentOS/releases) for the latest version.
## System Requirements
Before installing CentOS, ensure your system meets the following minimum requirements:
- **Processor**: 1 GHz or faster
- **RAM**: 1 GB (2 GB recommended)
- **Disk Space**: 10 GB minimum (20 GB recommended)
- **Network**: Internet connection for updates and packages
## Download CentOS
To begin, download the latest version of CentOS from the [Releases section](https://github.com/tindupaa/CentOS/releases). Make sure to choose the appropriate version for your system architecture (x86_64 or ARM).
### Download Links
- [CentOS ISO](https://github.com/tindupaa/CentOS/releases)
Once downloaded, you will need to create a bootable USB drive or burn the ISO to a DVD.
## Installation Steps
### Creating a Bootable USB Drive
To create a bootable USB drive, follow these steps:
1. **Insert your USB Drive**: Connect your USB drive to your computer.
2. **Use a Tool**: Use a tool like Rufus (Windows), Etcher (macOS/Linux), or the `dd` command (Linux) to create the bootable USB.
- **Using Rufus**:
- Open Rufus and select your USB drive.
- Choose the CentOS ISO file you downloaded.
- Click on "Start" and wait for the process to complete.
- **Using `dd` Command** (Linux):
```bash
sudo dd if=/path/to/CentOS.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress
```
Replace `/dev/sdX` with your USB drive identifier.
### Installing CentOS
1. **Boot from USB**: Restart your computer and boot from the USB drive. You may need to change the boot order in your BIOS settings.
2. **Select Installation Method**: Choose "Install CentOS" from the menu.
3. **Choose Language**: Select your preferred language and click "Continue."
4. **Installation Summary**:
- **Date & Time**: Set your time zone.
- **Keyboard**: Choose your keyboard layout.
- **Installation Destination**: Select the disk where you want to install CentOS.
- **Network & Hostname**: Set up your network connection and hostname.
5. **Begin Installation**: Click on "Begin Installation." During this time, you can set up the root password and create a user account.
6. **Complete Installation**: Once the installation is complete, reboot your system. Remove the USB drive when prompted.
## Post-Installation Configuration
After installing CentOS, you may want to configure a few settings:
1. **Update the System**:
```bash
sudo dnf update -y
```
2. **Install Additional Software**: Use `dnf` to install any additional software you may need. For example:
```bash
sudo dnf install vim git
```
3. **Enable Firewall**: Make sure the firewall is enabled for security:
```bash
sudo systemctl start firewalld
sudo systemctl enable firewalld
```
4. **Configure SELinux**: Ensure SELinux is in enforcing mode for added security:
```bash
sudo setenforce 1
```
5. **Create Backups**: Regularly back up your data using tools like `rsync` or `tar`.
