From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This did get me on an interesting path. Seems like ubiquity is getting blocked from running which is stalling the installer. Going to see if I can download a newer iso and if that fixes the issue
Still running into issues, but I think this link might be a good next step. Commenting with the link now before I restart the live environment https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2523101&hilit=INFO%3A+task+ubiquity+blocked#p2523101. It seems to indicate that multiple people are having this issue with linux mint 22 and that it might be related to graphics device differences/issues and several people said that they were able to install successfully after rebooting and selecting the compatibility mode setting when booting the live environment. Going to give that a shot and see if it resolve the kernel messages in syslog indicating that ubuitity has been blocked from starting for XYZ seconds that get printed out periodically.
So compatibility mode did work and now I'm just upset with how difficult it is to paste an image into discord but that seems like another issue for a different thread
