    Hello,

    I'm confused :(, I downloaded centos appliance , mounted it, then launched installer and followed installation steps.
    "centos server virtual appliance.pvm" was created in the virtual machines directory.
    Now when I click on the file parallels desktop opens but the "My Boot Camp.pvm" opens instead of my centos virtual machine.
    (I installed it about the year ago with bootcamp to physical partition on my HDD, Windows 7 is installed there)

    Can somebody explain how can I install and run centos appliance from appliances directory as it seems I'm doing something wrong

    Hi CsabaK,

    If you have already installed CentOS in a VM, you just need to click on Window option at the top Mac menubar (when PD is launched) and select Virtual Machine list to be able to start your second VM.

    As an alternative, go to your Home folder/Documents/Parallels and double-click on the CentOS.pvm file.
