 machine locked up at the USB probe. It also did the same on 8.1, 8.0, and 
 RH7.2. I realize this is a kernel level problem, but is there any way to 
 disable the USB probe via startup option? Making a custom install disk with 
 USB removed is a bit beyond John Q. Newbie, I would think

Can you boot the install with noauto option, go to console #2,
issue lspci and send us the contents? In particular, if it
reports the usb-uhci module, can you try to manually modprobe
uhci instead and tell if it doesn't lock anymore? If this fixes
your problem, we'll still need the full contents of report.bug,
to fix the problem in the pci database.

  But there were two install issues. First, I did not note a place to
set
 the
  timezone.  I did click on the timezone in the summary screen (even
 though
  it had guessed correctly), and found more configure options, like
ntpd.
 
 i don't understand what's your pb.
 

Come on this has been reported more than once.

The problem is, if time zone is correct (and it often correct is if
correct locale has been selected) there is *no* place where Set local
time to GMT and/or NTP sync are mentioned in summary. You must click
on time zone to see them ... but if time zone is correct nobody clicks
on time zone. So nobody even knows such options exist.

Really, folks, it has been reported in pre-8.0 already (it was correct
in 7.2 and changed in 8.0).
