It booted fine and after setting up username password all that I got stuck on timezone selection. I could move my mouse and click on stuff but nothing would happen. I tried skipping it or exiting the setup, even rebooting did nothing. I just could not get past the timezone selection.

Oh thats because you forgot the pentagram of lit candles around the computer. Friggin’ noob.

But really though the only thing I can think of is that you are running your own NTP server that you forgot about and it’s having a bad time?

Not that I would know of. It was a clean install and my network is about as basic as it gets.

That...is strange. What specific flavor of Fedora was that?

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Basic fedora workstation with Gnome. Literally went with the same I used on my laptop because I am familiar with it

So that didn't actually do the install, that's doing all that initial setup stuff before it sits there transferring data to the computer's drive.

maaaybe try Fedora KDE?
