I'm trying to install Qubes OS on my computer.
I have just deleted the Ubuntu Partition in order to install it,
but there's a problem with the storage configuration,
and I need to find a suitable stage1 device. There's nothing I can do...



What should I be doing in such a case?

If you can't see your local disk in device selection, you have most likely ran into partition table error.



Press Ctrl+Alt+F2 on Qubes installation screen to show console and type fdisk -l to list disk drives. Then you can fdisk /dev/sdX to select disk.



Now you can type fdisk commands




  • o makes a blank DOS partition table


  • w writes partition table to disk

Pressing Ctrl+Alt+F6 returns to install screen, or you can just reboot to see if your disk shows up.
