SCREENSHOT 12) Select the disk for the installation and choose between the default or custom disk configuration.

The two options are “Use an entire disk”, which will use and DELETE all the data in the selected disk (the selected disk is with a check before the line with the disk name), and “custom storage layout”, which will start a partition layout wizard and it will expect the user to manually modify (remove, create, modify?) the disk layout. For simplicity, we “use the entire disk” option, which is the most commont when installing in a server where dual boot is not so common.

SCREENSHOT 13) Accept the changes on the disk layout and continue.

Be careful, check all the lines mentioning “new” word. In this step all disk are visible and the all the changes, which are going to happen are displayed. Continuing after this step data could be lost if missconfiguration happened in the previous steps.

SCREENSHOT 14) Confirm the destructive actions related to the disk layout.

Changing a disk layout could lead to data loss! Select “Continue” and hit Enter.
