I’m triying to install in an old dual core 1gb 80gbs ide and i’m getting
anaconda fatal i/o error 11. Amy ideas?
Check the memory for errors and say if the error exist in grafical install mode ?
With CTRL + ALT + Fn (where n is a number between 1 and 6) you get access to terminal windows during the installation. This allows you to run basic commands like ‘dmesg’ or ‘cat /tmp/*log’ to help diagnose what’s going wrong. Alternatively you may try the text-based installer if you’re low on RAM or require display drivers that don’t ship with the installer.
first of all:
- is that a 64 bit MB/CPU?
- I/O error looks like a disk issue… can you post here a little specs about mb and a screenshot of the issue?
TIA
Otherwise try to start CentOS standard install and try to access the console (ALT + F7 ?) and look for any debug message.

Fixed that, added a external video card and passed, but now is hanging on
hardware detection. 
ok… but we can’t help you if you don’t answer our questions and help us to help you 
Its 64 bits, redhat 6 64 installed like a charm, i’ll try with centos 6.6
now.
Nevermind, finally used another old machine, i’ll check later the one that
its not working.
