      Yes, F28 is the host.
      CentOS 7 is the guest vm.

            I've tried using virt-install and it still locks up.

            sudo virt-install --name centos7-uefi \
               --ram 2048 --disk size=20 \
               --boot uefi \
               --location http://mirror.sigmanet.com/centos/7/os/x86_64/

              Thanks for confirming.
              F28 as a UEFI vm works fine.

                On Hyper-V I always setup as Gen2 which is UEFI also. I do recall various problems with some CentOS installs though a few years ago. Cannot recall clearly though. Most are Gen2, so I obviously figured out whatever I was doing wrong back then.

                  I thought the issue on Hyper-V was related to secure boot.

                    Oh I forget to turn that off about 50% of the time when I make a new VM.

                    But no, I mean I had some various other issues, but cannot recall.

                      That has always sucked all the time...

                        It would be awesome that they add an option under generation 2 when creating the VM using Hyper-V Manager.

                          @black3dynamite I already have a habit of un-checking "Secure Boot" after I create the VM.
