Trying to install Fedora 32 KDE on second hard drive. This drive has been partitioned with /dev/sdb1 formatted as NTFS, and /dev/sdb5 and /dev/sdb6 formatted as ext4. The Fedora install disk says there is only 2.77MB available on the disk. What gives, and how do I fix it?

After mounting the disk partitions using PCLOS, I do a df -a and see this:

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/dev/sdb6 49G 180M 46G 1% /media/662eba9a-9b8f-41c3-83b9-ebe7a99a27c9
/dev/sdb1        51G    67M   51G   1% /media/094E20372CEB488B
/dev/sdb5 49G 180M 46G 1% /media/a0ba2017-3c90-4dfb-b946-f737050f63e7

Please advise--doug
2.77MB is the space that is not used by any partition. If you want to do an automatic install, delete partition 5 and 6 and let the install create the partitions it is going to use. If the partitions have data you want to keep, then you can not easily install from a live CD. You have to do a custom partitioning telling the installer to use the existing partitions and where you want to mount them.
