Hi all, getting an error when booting from USB that there are “no partitions to install on”. I am attempting to chroot from USB to try and fix an issue where the network manager has disappeared from my machine. Worst case I was planning to do a full reinstall as this computer hasn’t been used since 2019.
Hardware is an Intel NUC, and I recall having some issues when first installing a while back. I have checked in the bios that AHCI is set, secure / fast boot are both off and UEFI legacy is off.
