    Hello.

    From the screenshot, it appears you're trying to install CentOS 7 Arm on Apple Silicon powered Mac.

    Unfortunately, for CentOS 7 that is not possible, due to the difference in pagesizes for the kernel used by CentOS 7 (64kb) and Apple Silicon (4 or 16kb).

    Partially its caused by the fact that CentOS 7 was released prior to release of Apple Silicon Mac's and kernels were not adapted in publicly available builds.

    If you wish to use CentOS, we recommend installing a newer distributive, such as CentOS 9 which adopted the pagesize, as versions 8 of the operating system also have the same issue.

    For more in depth information, you can refer to the following discussion on CentOS forums: https://forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?t=78547
