As I'm recalling, if you choose the "advanced" option, you get a choice of
partitions on which to install. I seem to recall a fundamental unclarity
in this part of the process: I was trying to add a partition to be visible
or bootable, and it ended up getting flagged as a target partition and got
formatted instead. Probably best to only let the install routine be
concerned with the target (install) partition(s), and add any other partitions
you want to be visible or bootable later. Lycoris uses GRUB for a bootloader,
btw. Anyway, this option (of not just letting it take over the whole disk) is
not for the faint of heart.
