The installation starts off fine, I can select the language and then install.
The UI loads and I can once again select the language (English)
I can select updates and thridparty during install
I select erase and reinstall (as the installed failed the first time), then "Install now"
I approve the partitioning, select "New York" and continue (until now the screen resolution was correct for all prompts).

It then asks about my keyboard (at this step it no longer fits on the screen see below), however I can click Next (using tab)
At this point it prompts me again for the location, I enter my town, but can not continue as the button I think is continue is grayed out (note the input does not matter it does not allow me to continue), so using tab brings me back to the previous step.


I have attached the screens of the problem screen.


I've decided to use a server install as that does not contain a GUI, but wanted to inform others as to what I'm seeing.
