RE: CS 4.1 and CentOS 6.3

[DogPatch06 <Do...@gmx.com>]

Hi James

I have downloaded the uss-cloudstack-3.0.iso and I have burn it in a DVD.

When boot the server and start the installation of the CentOS by default it
ask me the dvd or the cd with the image of the CentOS.

Is this normal?  Can you help me??

Thanks in advice
