      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      Selecting the "basic graphic mode" boot entry on RHEL ISO results in graphical mode not starting at all. A similar problem was on RHEL-9, where the "basic graphic mode" was replaced with "text mode": https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1961092

      Please provide the package NVR for which the bug is seen:

      RHEL-10.0-20241106.0
      lorax-40.5.8-3.el10
      lorax-templates-rhel-10.0-54.el10

      How reproducible is this bug?:

      Always

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Select "Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.0 in basic graphics mode" in the "Troubleshooting" submenu on a rhel-10 ISO.

      Expected results

      Able to run an installation in any kind of "basic" graphical mode. Or, if the basic graphical mode is not supposed to work, the installer boot menu should simply offer starting the text mode, as it is on RHEL-9.

      Actual results

      Wayland fails to start, resulting in anaconda offering to start text or RDP installation.
