If the installer is doing that then it usually means that the UEFI
firmware is either
a) not in BIOS compatibility mode
b) does not respond in a way that Linux detects or
c) the disk is larger than what BIOS compatibility mode will allow.
Otherwise anaconda should default to MBR unless it finds the hardware
does not know how to deal with MBR.
