I can not install the network in CentOS 6.6 minimum. OS is installed on a VMware virtual machine. Before installing CentOS 6.6. CentOS 7 was installed on this machine, and the network was configured during installation without any problems. When I installed Centos 6.6 and specified all the same addresses, the network could not be configured. I tried to configure the network during the installation of the OS and after. In the network settings indicated the ip, dns, netmask, gateway and mac addresses. I tried to do yum update and ping google, the results on the screenshot: CentOS network

  • Judging by the vmware tag, a virtual machine is used. Are you sure about vmware settings? - Vitaly Kamalin
  • See if ping to host (vmware itself) is on its IP. / And generally, show the output ifconfig -a - avp
  • True OS is put on a virtual machine. But I put the CentOS 7 on the same machine, and the network set up right away. So I concluded that the vmware settings are correct. Then I connected another virtual disk to the machine, on which I installed CentOS 6.6 and could not configure the network. So I concluded that the virtual machine settings are still correct, and the point is in the OS settings. Am I thinking correctly, or am I mistaken? - mr_blond97 pm
  • If I write # ping xxxx (vmware host ip), then the message "connect: Network is unreachable" is displayed - mr_blond97
  • one
    And that but the mask of eth0 is strange. IMHO usually 255.255.255.0 - avp

judging by the labels, centos is installed as a client in vmware. Usually in virtualization systems for virtual machines, it is common to use network auto-configuration using dhcp.

try this, the most common and simple way.

  • Are you talking about autoconfiguring vmware settings or CentOS settings? - mr_blond97
  • I'm talking about autoconfiguration of the guest virtual machine network settings. in the comment to another answer you wrote that your other installation was successful. compare the vmware network settings for these two virtual machines. perhaps they are different, or, for example, in the settings there is a binding to the mac-address of the guest system. - aleksandr barakin
