I assume you've verified that the SSD has a GPT partition table. Yes, I did. Honestly, the easiest way to find out is start over, go to custom partitioning, clock on the blue link to create partitions automatically, and see what it chooses for /boot/efi. I did this. I chose the SSD-disk, which cont

I'm suspicious the installer wants /boot/efi on the same drive as / And if so it's a bug, but I can't remember if this ever got fixed yet. Also, the only thing that cares about two EFI System partitions, is there Windows installer. And only if there are two on one drive. One each on two drives is

Hi, I purchased an Asus laptop with 2 hard drives (SSD 256 GB and HDD 1 TB). Windows10 was preinstalled on the SSD and the HDD drive is used for data. I wanted to install fedora alongside Windows. So I shrinked the partition on the SSD drive (sdb) and also the partition on the HDD drive (sda). I
