Thanks for checking back with me. It seems to be solved...sort of. I found
a friend who had a CentOS 7 appliance DVD and after 999 updates (must be
older), it seems to run fine on both boxes that I have been trying.
Interesting that you mention nfs 4. I noticed that the appliance installed
with ext 3 and thought that was strange. Maybe ext 4 is a big part of the
problem. Why haven't we heard about this?

All installs lately using the script method that Fred recommends have been
troublesome - as if CentOS 7 is picky about the hardware configuration and
Riv RDAlsaconfig from the menu is broken.   With the appliance install,
everything works so I am happy about that but would sure like to understand
why we haven't gotten the script method working. It sounds like we need to
manually format the partitions ext 3 where appropriate before installing 7.

Thanks,
