Install CentOS 7 min with usb, using serial port
I am trying to install CentOS 7 min with a usb, while I am connected to the box using a serial cable. I usually do this using an hdmi cable but it is showing to be too time consuming and trouble. How would you do this? I can select boot from my usb but the console just goes blank and the machine reboots. I have CentOS 7 install configured on the usb, nothing special. Thank you for any input.
