| 04:58.17 | hemimaniac | EliveWeb_91 did you do any pre-formatting? |

| 04:59.57 | EliveWeb_64 | did format again |
| 05:00.01 | EliveWeb_64 | see above |
| 05:00.40 | hemimaniac | I seeing it, |
| 05:01.06 | hemimaniac | where are you trying to install elive to? |
| 05:01.48 | EliveWeb_64 | the ssd |
| 05:02.16 | EliveWeb_64 | i choose automatic |
| 05:02.32 | EliveWeb_64 | and Elive just doing the job until it fails with that error |
| 05:03.27 | hemimaniac | so you are trying to install to this disk Disk /dev/nvme0n1: 477 GiB, |
| 05:03.39 | EliveWeb_64 | yes |
| 05:06.57 | hemimaniac | does windows exist on it as well |
| 05:06.58 | hemimaniac | ? |
| 05:09.08 | hemimaniac | EliveWeb_64 ?? |
| 05:09.11 | EliveWeb_64 | no |
| 05:09.16 | EliveWeb_64 | was before |
| 05:09.29 | EliveWeb_64 | but i removed it |
| 05:09.37 | EliveWeb_64 | laptop came with Windows |
| 05:09.51 | EliveWeb_64 | then I formated the disk |
| 05:12.45 | hemimaniac | ok you are going to have to quit the installer, open up gparted and 1-loose the gpt label (right click on it and select labels) 2- reformat as ext4 ( whole disk ) but I would recommend 25-30GB for / then 2gb for swap then whatever sizeGB for /home |
| 05:14.50 | hemimaniac | and before you restart the the installer it is ideal to reboot into bios and disable secureboot for the install phase |
| 05:15.02 | keyra | use "usb-bootable-elive" tool to automatically download and record your USB with Elive. If you are in other Linux* use "dd" from a terminal or the Usb-ImageWriter tool, if you are in Windows use UsbWriter, please do not use other tools than the suggested ones |
| 05:18.24 | EliveWeb_64 | <PROTECTED> |
| 05:21.34 | hemimaniac | right so close the installer and use gparted like I mentioned, then reboot into the live usb after you are done with gparted so you can temporarily make sure secure boot is disabled in bios |
| 05:21.46 | keyra | use "usb-bootable-elive" tool to automatically download and record your USB with Elive. If you are in other Linux* use "dd" from a terminal or the Usb-ImageWriter tool, if you are in Windows use UsbWriter, please do not use other tools than the suggested ones |
