I'm attempting to install CentOS 7 on a new set of Supermicro Twin2 servers (motherboard model X10DRT-PT).
I've attempted the install via a local USB drive as well as via virtual media mounted through IPMI and through a Raritan KVM. All have the same result:
After selecting "Install CentOS" at the boot prompt, the system goes to a black screen and stays there.
I'm able to install vmWare, Ubuntu, and Windows on these things without a hitch. What's up with the CentOS install?

After a CMOS reset, the system was able to install CentOS. The only thing that appears different between this blade and the others is that there is a setting for expanding the number of interrupts available to the system. On the others, it is enabled. On this one, after reset, it is now disabled and CentOS will install.
