[Bug 1781256] Re: installation failed

[Merlijn Sebrechts]

Hi Phillip, thanks for looking into this.

Can you quickly explain why you think this is the case? What part of the
logs shows

1. that I booted in EFI mode
2. that the disk is partitioned in BIOS mode
3. that I didn't choose "use entire disk"

I don't remember what mode I booted it in, but I'm pretty sure that I
chose the "use entire disk" option.

After this issue, I restarted the computer and chose to go to the
installer directly instead of to the live session first. I chose "use
entire disk" again and the installation worked. Are the logs of a
successful install saved somewhere on the computer, so I can compare the
logs?
