I think the last time I did a fresh install, I must have been using

caused problems for the installer. The media isn't the problem since
it passed both the burn check and the install check, and seems to work
fine otherwise. I'm not sure why UEFI would have had problems with
pre-existing ext4 partitions on a GPT formatted disk, but it does and
refuses to proceed.
If you have a GPT formatted disk, why aren't you using UEFI?
You can still do a BIOS install to a GPT formatted drive. You just need
to create a BIOS boot partition (not /boot) which is what the installer
should be telling you.
