installer prevents partitioning

Open artemiostenio opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I tried to install Clear Linux, first partitioning it as I wanted it to be, the system didn't accept it, so I used the system's own partition manager, even though the system didn't recognize it.

The documention for installation covers this but it isn't obvious that the partitions need to have specific labels. For instance your boot partition must be labeled CLR_BOOT and root partition CLR_ROOT. See the linked document for more options.

Thanks for getting back to me, could you please give a warning to anyone who is going to install it, letting them know that the installation method is completely different from the traditional one, so far, the distributions I have had access to, follow one for partitioning, Clearlinux is the first one that is different.
