Anyways, everything seems to be going perfectly normal during the installation. But when I reach the "partition disks" part, errors begin to occur. First of all there are 5 partitions which look like the following:
1.0 TB sda:
> 1.0 MB Free Space
> #1 536.9 MB B
> #2 982.6 GB ext4
> #3 17.7GB F Swap Swap
> 728.6KB Free Space
I don't understand why there are so many partitions. And whenever I try the option to partition them automatically it fails at installation of base system.
When I try doing it manually it doesn't let me set bootable from "off" to "on". It's very frustrating as I've been trying to resolve this issue for the past 2 nights.
Help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
