HP 470 G7 Notebook
Linux

Hy

I have deployed a CentOS 7.5 on my HP 470 G7 Notebook PC, but it doesn't support CentOS 5.5 virtualisation.

So I need to degrade my OS to CentOS 6.7 for example which support CentOS 5.5 virtualisation.

 

I have desabled Secured Bios and connected an external CD/DVDdrive, and selected first boot on this one.

 

The system boot on CD/DVD drive with the choice of CentOS 6.7 but it loops and the system degrade doesn't work.

 

How can I do to realize this depgrade or an hard reset ?.

 

Thanks for your help

Cent OS is a Linux distro and HP does not provide consumer Linux support.

 

IF you replace the preinstalled Windows OS with a Linux distro, or add a Linux distro, then you assume full responsibility for maintaining that -- including solving any problems with booting the other OS and/or installing the other OS.

Your best bet for support with issues with Linux is to contact the support forum of the distro you are using.
