Hi, Tom --
Thanks. :-) Didn't work, though -- those key combinations got me to console
screens but not with an actionable prompt. I tried typing commands into them
anyway, but CentOS netinstall continued to try to talk to wlan0.

2) Not using netinstall, but I guess you have no CDDROM built in.
Using USB DVD drive, and installing from installation DVD would solve this.
Once you install all needed packages/system, you can find the pci ID of
the Ethernet NIC and

Hi, Fabien --
Thanks. :-) I removed two screws that seemed to be holding a cover in place
over the HD-and-memory compartment, but the cover remained pretty tightly in
place anyway. Dunno what I'm missing -- but if there's a switch in this laptop
I'd figure it must be in there. (?) Now what...

Hi Jeff,
You can use Alt + F3 or Alt + F4 once you're inside the installer to open a
console.
If you disable the wlan0 interface before the network part of the installer you
should be ok.

Hi Jeff,
then sorry for this :)
I have to admit that I up to now only installed other linux-distribs and
there has been always a way to open a console via alt-f1, or f2 etc pp.
you can do that on CentOS as well! its on VC#2, but only once stage2
