[TriLUG] Install Redhat 8.0 mouse problem

[Turnpike Man]

Are you by chance using a machine with a serial mouse as opposed to PS2 or
USB??  I have had problems with several distributions of RH where the mouse
worked perfectly during install, and never after first boot when using a serial
mouse.  I had to disable gpm, then startx.
