I am content with the knowledge that PHP 8.x support is being worked on. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Last time I read, I was convinced that ElkArte works on php8.0, at least with minimal bugs.

I've been neglect in reviewing the install program, my testing thus far has only been to update PHP versions on an existing install, not yet to install fresh. So much to do, so much to do

I have just done an install of the github elkarte/patch_1-1-7 on php 8.0.1 cleanly. So not sure where your error is.
The only error I had was that the url was detected as 127.0.0.1 not the url of the server, but that was simply enough to reset in the theme management.
Edit: Oh you were using the development branch not the existing stable. There might be a bug there.

I tried 1.1.7. I finally made it past the screen where you are asked for my database name, user name, and password. I made it onto the next screen, where it asks me what I wish to name my community and if you wish to enable a few features. I click on continue and am greeted with a white page that reads, "Table 'mydb.elkarte_categories' doesn't exist" I can confirm that database was written (see screenshot), but it would seem the installer is not complete. The white page with the error I landed on can be seen on the following URL install/install.php?step=4
The problem is the install is looking for elkarte_categories but elkarte_categories were not written. You may wish to check your installer.

For some reason that table wasn’t created, what errors are showing in the Apache log?

I don’t get those errors, you’re going to have to give more information about your environment.
What version of php, what packages, what webserver?
