Hello,
On a system with 2 HD, 1 SSH (sdb) and 1 standard HD (sda) of 2 TBit I wanted to make a fresh (and basic) installation on sda I created a 15 GB ext4 partition for that purpose. Using the installer (from a USB stick). I selected my partition (sda6) for the system (/) But I get the following message:
Your bios-based system needs a special partition to boot from a GPT disk label. To continue please create a 1Mb /biosboot type
I do not know really what I should do.
There is already a fedora installed on sdb
