- OS: CentOS 7 Minimal
- Obtain ISO from https://www.centos.org/download/
- Create Bootable USB
- On a CentOS 6.5, Ubuntu 16, or newer OS: run dd if=/path/to/OS/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1804 of=/dev/sdb (assuming /dev/sdb is path to USB thumb drive)
- On Windows: download dd for Windows > rename downloaded executable to dd.exe > move dd.exe to PATH (such as C:\Windows\System32) by running MOVE C:\Users\USERNAME\Desktop\dd.exe C:\Windows\System32 > Use diskpart as shown in the notes in the Miscellaneous section > run dd if=/path/to/ISO/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1804.iso of=\\.\d: (given that D:\ is the correct USB removable volume for the bootable image)
