where one would normally be asked for language

multiple monitors connected to this system?
I added both, no effect. Tried stuff like that before.
The fact that this happens, as I reported, before any obvious attempt
to run X, suggests this particular problem is unrelated to X.
Can't think what else it can be, but I can't remember if the language
prompt is inside X or out of it, typically...anyone?
Skipping (or not skipping) the media check is in text mode.
Then anaconda runs (announcing its start in text mode) and starts X.
There's a do-nothing screen (Next).
Then there's the language selection screen.
Alt-Fn or Ctrl-Alt-Fn should work at that point. In particular, F2
should be handy.
There's always "nomodeset" to try, too. Nouveau KMS is one of the
objectives of F12 (isn't it?), but I don't know if it's been turned on yet.
