Centos Installation

1. First download the appropriate ISO image from centos mirrors http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/7/isos/x86_64/ and install. Centos 7 only supports 64 bit processors. This howto uses the minimal install image: CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1503-01.iso (or a later version).

2. Burn the images to a CD and boot from the CD

11. Update system

yum -y update

12. Disable selinux. [Warning: Selinux is a security feature and disabling is not really the right thing to do, though at the moment is seems to be the easiest way to get things working. The correct solution would be to leave Selinux enabled and then submit a Selinux configuration that does not block Asterisk/Freepbx from working. If anyone has time to do that they are more than welcome. In the meantime I assume we will disable it and accept the weakened security as a consequence.] Check the following file:

vi /etc/selinux/config

has this setting:

SELINUX=disabled

reboot (if above setting was changed):

reboot

13. Install additional packages

yum -y install net-tools wget
