I’m trying to install version 4.10 but it says I have 1mb out of 480gb
After that it says error after I made a claim for storage
I also tried on the main ssd and it didn’t work again
Delete the partition table with fdisk.
Boot to your Qubes OS install usb:
- choose
rescue modeinstead ofinstall Qubes OS. - wait a bit and choose the third option:
Skip to shell - (run
fdisk -hto see all commands and theirs descriptions). - run
fdisk -lto locate your disk. - run
fdisk /dev/nvme0n1to choose a disk.
(replace/dev/nvme0n1with your disk) - delete all partitions (1 by 1): type
dthen enter. repeat. - save changes made: type
wthen enter. - reboot and install Qubes.
If you don’t have the rescue mode option, you can open a shell with
Ctrl + Alt + F2 into the installation wizard.
Had you installed a prior version of Qubes on that SSD? I had issues with this in the past and the solution was to format the disk manually as @szz9pza suggested above.
Technically, the disk is not formated, we delete the partition table.
Some kind of index to tell the OS where are the partitions (and therefore data).
Without it, for the OS, the disk is just empty (but the data are still there).
