Installation issue in my iBUYPOWER PC
I have been trying to install for the last fewdays to start using Linux for development work (coding) and start using Linux as our primary workstation for personal and business.
The problem was, I could not install Redhat 8.1 or 8.2 beta on my test system. installation kept on failing to advance, I think it is the wireless network driver, install even fails with ethernet wire connection.
Here is the list of hardware on my system:

Hope to get a hint from support to get me pass the installation.
Note: I have been able to install Fedaro 31, and I have failed to install with CentOS 8.1
So far I love Fedaro 31 with Cinnamon Desktop, but I really like to try Redhat 8 as I am playing to move every one in my group from windows 10 to Linux for good.
Thanks for the support!
