OK, first off: I'm a complete Linux noob.
Secondly: some details: I'm installing ClearOS 7.3 on a completely new system with a SuperMicro X11SSV motherboard with an Intel M2. 2280 500-GB NVMe SSD (so PCI, not SATA).
After some fidget with the BIOS settings, I found out how to do this from a hardware perspective and managed to successfully complete the ClearOS install, where it tells me to reboot. I reboot, and choose to boot from [UEFI:ClearOS] (the entire install was done under UEFI settings), the first screen of lines seems OK, the next one alternates [FAILED] messages with [OK] messages. FAILEDs are "Failed to start SYSV", "Failed to listen on D-Bus", "Failed to start login service", etc. It then concludes with "Started LVM2 PV scan on Device 259:3".

After I encountered this the first time, I went ahead and cleared the NVMe and redid from start: same effect.

    Using the media you used to install, boot from the install media and choose Troubleshooting and then the option to Rescue. After it boots, have the system attempt to find the linux system. If it does, check the contents of /mnt/sysimage/root/ and see if there is a yum log file. See if the packages were laid down ok. The other thing to check is to see if you can 'chroot' to the new environment with 'chroot /mnt/sysimage' then you can start manually starting services and troubleshoot your install from there.

    FWIW, this is not normal and perhaps a reinstall would help. You may want to manipulate the drive partition layout differently in case you are running into problems with the physical disk.

    Can you validate that the SHASUM for your downloaded ClearOS image is the same as on the CHECKSUM file
