you wont get gui with that minimal install cd, however you can install gui after installation finish , do it via yum , so that is called
base system only, good for server w/o gui

you can try to set no 1 or no 3 , give a test to set boot

Just to add that. Red hat is installed successfully but I need open source linux for update funtionality.

IMO if redhat can be installed then there will no problem with centos , which version of redhat did you installed if may i ask

I installed 6 and 6.5 both were successful. I didn't change anything, no boot order or /boot device. That is why I am so confused that why Fedora or CentOS are being failed

I am currently trying to install CentOS 6.5 minimal as recommended by you lets see if I get to boot menu this time. I update shortly

good move , install gui as needed, you may chose kde or gnome to suite your need
