How to resolve the issue of getting stuck on the progress bar during CentOS 7 installation?
If you encounter a stall on the progress bar during the CentOS 7 installation process, here are some possible solutions:
- Reboot the system: Sometimes, the system may get stuck during the installation process due to certain issues. Try restarting the system and begin the installation process again.
- Check for hardware issues: Check if your hardware is experiencing any problems, such as a damaged hard drive or memory. You can try replacing the hardware or running hardware diagnostic tools to identify the issue.
- Check the installation medium: If you are using a CD or USB installation medium, make sure to check if the medium is damaged. You can try redownloading, burning it again, or creating a new USB boot disk.
- Check the installation options: Make sure to select the correct installation options when starting the installation program and configure according to your needs. Some options may cause the installation process to freeze.
- Turn off unnecessary devices: During the installation process, try temporarily turning off any unnecessary devices such as network adapters, USB devices, or other external devices. These devices can sometimes interfere with the installation process.
- Check the logs: The CentOS 7 installer generates log files to record detailed information during the installation process. You can view the log files to understand any errors or exceptions that occurred during installation.
If the above methods don’t work, you can try alternative installation methods, such as using network installation or installing with a different version of CentOS.
