What does the output of fdisk -lshow for the drive and did you make the partition in Windows? And yes messing with partitions formatting things can lead to data loss. If that was not mentioned as THE first thing in the tutorial then it was not worth bothering with. Along with always backup your important data before doing anything like this and confirm the backup worked an untested backup is useless until proven good.I'm super late on this reply, but will that risk any of the data that's currently on the drive if I do something wrong? The drive is just a game's drive so nothing too sensitive on there but still would rather avoid the headacheWhat I would try is removing/deleting the new partition you created and just leave free space for the installer to use, that way it should see the free space, maybe there is a problem with the partitioning?
