What I don't understand is how the normal graphical install completes without any issue at all but it is such a problem at this point just after the reboot.
Installation uses a slow generic driver. The most commonly used and much much faster chip-specific FOSS drivers depend on KMS. Cmdline nomodeset disables KMS, which for most chips disables chip-specific FOSS drivers. So if your gfxchip has a fast, specific FOSS driver assigned to it, and you don't use nomodeset, that driver will be used whether it actually works acceptably with your gfxchip or not. Can you boot single or rescue or some live media and get the output from 'lspci | grep VGA' to report here? 'hwinfo --gfxcard' would be even more helpful. Knowing what gfxchip you have helps us help you, and helps you help yourself. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
