If so, you must have booted Fedora 35 via the legacy bootloader instead of EFI firmware. But then when installing Fedora 37, you’ve booted the installer as an EFI target, so it wants to install an EFI OS and that requires an EFI volume. So you’ll need to use GPT and include a EFI partition in your partition layout. Or boot the installation media as a legacy boot entry. -- Jonathan Billings _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
