When you're partitioning, the installer will keep the partitioning type that is currently on a disk (GPT or MS-DOS). You can ask it to write a new blank partition table by hitting <enter> on the raw disk device. The default choice for the new partition table will depend on whether you have booted the installer in UEFI (GPT) or legacy BIOS (MS-DOS) mode. You can override the that choice, but depending on your setup you *may* need to use expert mode to be asked the question about which partition type to use. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "We're the technical experts.
