We are going around in circles. My question to you was did you use the
"Install a new system or upgrade an existing system" option?

You responded:
"Install new system was the option - if you go from there you don't
reach any repo definition options in the steps until you hit this
problem immediately after trying to click to move on from the
bootloader section."

So now we hear you did use the option I asked you about.

You wanted to know if any one ignored the set network option that
appears after the you set the host name. I said I did not set up the
network at that point and the installation continued. Did you set the
host name? Was it after that your installation crapped out?

Maybe if we knew exactly what selections you made from the menus after
you choose the boot option you chose we could have more of an idea what
went wrong.
