CentOS ISOs

I'd like to download and install and experiment with CentOS.

But I'm a bit foggy on how to convert ISOs to something that will boot.

I would be starting with a new box that has no OS installed.

- Thanks!

If it's not booting or giving you the option to boot from CD, check BIOS to make sure CD-ROM is listed before Hard Drive.
