What Is The “not Supported” Hardware?
When the installer complains that it has detected unsupported hardware, is there any way to tell just what it didn’t like? Following the URL in the message just ends up at the RHEL Hardware Certification page, which isn’t much help. The installer seemed quite willing to continue with the installation, and poking around from the shell VT I didn’t find anything that didn’t seem to be working. I also didn’t see anything relevant in any of the message VTs.
As it turns out this isn’t a big deal for me, since this was the CentOS
6.5 installer and there was no such warning from the 6.6 installer. I’m just wondering how I might go about tracking that down,

We noticed this when installing onto some new Dell R320’s.. it might have something to do with hardware that the device had that the older kernel might not have known about. Nothing seemed wrong and everything seemed to install ok (we would also update the kernel in the install process, so that probably hid any further problems), but moving to a 6.6 install made the silly error message go away.
Kickstart.. and we had already changed the interface to the new name. It’s the same kickstart between the two versions, with just the nic name being different.
In my case there was no kickstart — just a plain install from the ISO image, and the complaint from the installer comes long before I get a chance to do any customizations.
