Is this the terminal launched from the GUI?

Anyway, since you came from RHL8, quite a lot of programs were added and 
  removed. You might have to drop to runlevel 3 or ctl-alt-Fn to a 
virtual terminal and log in as root to do this. If you cannot even get a 
basic terminal, I really have no idea as to a direction to take.

Basically, run yum grouplist to get the groups and run yum groupinstall 
for the groups which you want to make sure are at least to the default 
group level.

I'm sure that there are a lot of added libraries effecting stability of 
the GUI since RHL8. Running in a shell should get you a more complete 
system. The group installs pull in all sorts of programs which were not 
previously released in earlier versions.

You got the system this far, it should be operational enough to pull in 
some of the additional groups.

At this point, development releases seem easier to maintain than way 
back starts to the newest release version.

Good Luck,
Jim
