On a new SSD drive laptop, I got this error on the Installation type step I could not manage the disk because when clicking the continue button the window freezed, I could only see dev/sda on the drop-down. The steps I took to solve this were: Get into Windows safe mode by opening CMD as admin and entered command bcdedit /set safeboot minimal Restart and boot into BIOS Changed SATA operation mode from RSD (I think this was the “RAID” I was seeing while searching for a solution)to AHCI
