I fixed it.. I had to incrase the partition to 2 tb I have a 4tb ssd i increased it to 2tb instead of 200gb and it worked

Ok ill try increasing it , I wonder for 4 tb if that’s what they want That’s silly though if you have to give half the space of the ssd

wonder if its just anaconda expecting a 50/50 split to automatically handle dual boot

Maybe manual partitioning instead of automatic would work

it would, but i have only done that with a 2 disk setup, bit unsure how to avoid being destructive with the EFI on that. at least with anaconda

For manual partitioning, I usually setup a separate EFI partition That way windows won't mess with it I've done it several times before

Just to piggyback on this, I had the exact same issue trying to install Bazzite on my GPD WIN 4 with a 4TB SSD. I had to make and format the partitions using GParted to actually get it to install.

Got my working as well , I shrunk bazitte after it installed with gparted , so now I have 1tb for bazitte

Ok, I was having the same issue and had to change from a 1TB partition to 2TB. I see you guys saying you shrunk the partition again after installing Bazzite with GParted. I'm not familiar with this. Could someone assist me with this?

boot the installer for a different linux that provides a live installer (essentially a trial mode for the desktop before installing) like ubuntu, pop_os, fedora workstation then once you are on the live destkop just open gparted and resize from there. a live installer is being worked on, but currently atomic desktop cannot use a live installer
