I'm having a problem installing CentOS 8 from a USB drive. When the

After I select English and continue, the installer freezes. The USB

mouse moves the cursor, but the installer is unresponsive to either
selecting QUIT or HELP.
I've tried both the default and the basic graphic install with the same
results.
Stupid (as in I am guilty of that) question: do you know if this
USB is not a bum? The later explains why I could not my raspberry pi
booting. Replacing with a new sd card solved this issue.
CentOS completes the self-test without error before booting. Booting
completes without apparent problem. My guess is that the USB is good.
If you want to be lazy and have a hypervisor, create an vm guest and
boot it using the usb.
I can try that. It will tell me if there is a HW/BIOS issue.
With that said, it is possible that while you are having an
uncooperative gui you can still switch screens (i.e. keyboard still
listening to you) to screen 1 or 2 and then take a look at the
dmesg/log output for clues of what went boink.
Good idea -- I hadn't thought of that.
