Hey @cha55son,
Line 21
MEMORY1=free -t -m | grep "buffers/cache" | awk '{print $3" MB";}'
returns empty result centos...
Could you replace it with something similar to:
MEMORY1=free -t -m | grep "Mem" | awk '{print $3" MB";}'

or maybe something better because I am a newbie in Linux!

Kudos for the scripts itself, I did use it too!

But there is now a better way to run it on Centos 7 than using /etc/profile, which has a side effect that it will run also when you do sudo su - - please see https://github.com/gdubicki/centos-pam-with-update-motd for more info.
