Yes. We use CentOS on all our business machines. And the skills and 
nuances involved translate directly. I just don't want to make this any 
more difficult than I need to. I was unhappy enough that both CentOS 6 
and 7 wouldn't recognize the eMMC memory on the Livas.

I did hear you. And when I'm willing to spend the time reinstalling and 
learning all the ins and outs of another distro, I'll give it a shot. 
For now, Red Hat derivatives art are what I know and what I'm 
comfortable with.
