I have spent 2 1/2 days on this, and it's getting old..... please help me.
The setup;
Brand new install of CentOS 7.6 from DVD ISO on thumb drive. Install works perfect, everything works! (network, sound, displays [all 3] and all)
As soon as I run `yum update` and it runs through 1300+ updates and then won't re boot. I can get the "alt + F2" bash/console but no GNOME GUI
I susspect the graphics card, but attempting to do NVIDIA driver installs of all kinds fail. On fresh installs I tried both this way and this way
The install via NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-*.run fails with an error that "your kernal headers for ... can not be found at /lib/modules/3.10.0...../ [build|source]
The elrepo way did "nothing". A bunch of stuff installs, and I can reboot, but `lshw` indicates that nouveau is still in use.
To be honest, the nouveau drivers are working just fine. But why not after the yum update????
here is my lshw output

$ sudo lshw -c display
