RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description David Jones 2018-04-24 19:58:49 UTC
Description of problem:

After completing the install and rebooting, I get the initial setup page, where it asks my locale and time zome settings. However, the "Next" button for time zone is always grayed out, and I can't get past it.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install CentOS Gnome Desktop
2. Reboot after install.
3. Try to set Time Zone

Actual results:

Can't get past time zone screen. 


Expected results:

Set time zone and complete installation. 


Additional info:

This is an offline install, as the machine is unable to be connected to the internet. 

If I try to change to a terminal, I get something like "Job waiting for Plymouth start screen - 30s/unlimited."

did you click on somewhere on the map or type in a timezone ?

Comment 3 David Jones 2018-04-24 21:54:30 UTC
I tried both several times. I also tried rebooting. I tried going back to the previous screen and turning location services on and off. Same results in all cases. 

Though doubt it's relevant, I did install in UEFI mode.

Comment 4 Ray Strode [halfline] 2018-04-25 14:19:39 UTC
so to confirm, this is 7.4 ?

Comment 5 David Jones 2018-04-25 15:21:54 UTC
That's correct.
