class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can easily get an ISO image of all released versions of CentOS. On the website of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"CentOS (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.centos.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">CentOS<\/a>, you can get the list of all available mirrors in the world. For better download speed choose the mirror in your region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Get the list here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.centos.org\/download\/mirrors\/\">https:\/\/www.centos.org\/download\/mirrors\/<\/a><\/li><li>Or direct download ISO from here: http:\/\/isoredirect.centos.org\/centos\/8\/isos\/x86_64\/<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After Download the ISO image, you can verify the image with the size and SHA256 hash value given <a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.centos.org\/Manuals\/ReleaseNotes\/CentOS8.1905?action=show&amp;redirect=Manuals%2FReleaseNotes%2FCentOSLinux8#head-e1e24c827b2c77c9fbb3df9cf5c7914dfd921557\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Create_a_bootable_USB_drive\"><\/span>Step 2: Create a bootable USB drive<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After download the ISO image the next thing we required is a bootable USB drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a Windows PC, you can create a bootable USB of CentOS by using <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"YUMI (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pendrivelinux.com\/yumi-multiboot-usb-creator\/\" target=\"_blank\">YUMI<\/a> or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"RUFUS (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/rufus.ie\/\" target=\"_blank\">RUFUS<\/a> or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"LiLi (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linuxliveusb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">LiLi<\/a>. All are very simple and reliable ways to make a bootable USB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you on Linux then you can create bootable USB using the dd command like the below example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo dd if=\/path_to_iso_file\/CentOS-8-x86_64-1905-dvd1.iso of=\/dev\/sdb status=progress &amp;&amp; sync<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Note: replace path_to_iso_file with your iso file path and also replace \/dev\/sdb by your USB device path. If you don&#8217;t know your USB device path you can run the below command to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo lsblk<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Virtual_Box\"><\/span>Virtual Box<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For installation in Virtual Box, we do not need a bootable USB media.
