- create USB bootable disk
NOTE: It doesn't work if you burn your usb disk with UltraISO on Windows,
You can use LiveUSB-Creator instead.
Download CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-DVD.iso, and burn it into your USB disk,
copy CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-DVD.iso to usb disk for later use.(Because when I intall centos, it requires the ISO file)

- NOTE:
After I entered the CentOS system, I found the notebook got hot quidkly. Finally, I figured it out. It's caused by the NVS 5400M. So I turned it off in BIOS.
