On the next step you can choose your system installation software. On this step CentOS offers a lot of Server and Desktop platform environments that you choose from, but, if you want a high degree of customization, especially if you are going to use CentOS 7 to run as a server platform, then I suggest you select Minimal Install with Compatibility Libraries as Add-ons , which will install a minimal basic system software and later you can add other packages as your needs require using yum groupinstall command.
Click on Installation Destination menu, select your disk and choose I will configure partitioning. On the next screen, choose LVM Logical Volume Manager as partition layout and, then, click on Click here to create them automatically , option which will create three system partition using XFS filesystem, automatically redistributing your hard-disk space and gathering all LVS into one big Volume Group named centos.
If you are not pleased with the default partition layout done automatically by the installer you can completely add, modify or resize your partition scheme and when you finish hit on Done button and Accept Changes on the Summary of Changes prompt. The next step is to set your system hostname and enable networking. If you have a functional DHCP server on you network then it will automatically configure all your network setting for enabled NIC, which should appear under your active interface.
After you finish setting up a strong password for root account move to User Creation and create your first system user. You can designate this user to become a System Admin with root privileges using sudo command by checking the box Make this user administrator , then click on Done to go back on main menu and wait for the installation process to finish.
After the installation process finishes, the installer will show a successfully message on screen, demanding to reboot your system in order to use it. A user can download and use this enterprise-level operating system free of cost. You can also use this tutorial to upgrade your CentOS 7 to the latest version.

I would request you to enlighten me. This is the recommended image for most users. The installer will ask from where it should fetch the packages to be installed. This image is most useful if you have a local mirror of CentOS packages. It can be used for installing or populating a local mirror.
Depending on the name they use the respective display manager. They are designed for testing purposes and exploring the CentOS 7 environment. They will not modify the content of your hard disk, unless you choose to install CentOS 7 from within the Live environment.
Please be advised that you can not change the set of installed packages in this case. This image is small enough to be burned on a CD. Please burn this image onto a CD and boot your computer off it. A preselected set of packages will be installed on your system. Everything else needs to be installed using yum. Choice is yours. Have a question or suggestion?
