tried https/agama.local inserting the password SjGGiwa5 doesnt works gives login incorrect
tried from another pg using chrome https//192.168.1.19 chrome gives me alerts but at the end works
agama appears but I tried many options but cannt setup to use existing partitions, how to use the existing / (sda6) and /swap (sda8) partitions and leave unchanged /home (sda7) and windows partitions (sda3 4 5) data partition (sda9)
and also, what I have to do with efi-boot partitions (sda1 2)?

IIRC from your recent thread, nomodeset was already mentioned. Since you have NVIDIA you need that during install and at boot until you have the NVIDIA driver installed.

I f I insert in use disk>details>add or use partitions
/dati as mountpoint and select sda9 as partition to mount (NTFS)
agama doesn’t allow me to use as it is and propose to format with XFS
how can I get to mount sda9 in /dati and leave it untouched?

then I used existent partition / (sda6 ext4) and /home do not format(sda7 ext4) and /swap (sda9 swap) but agama show me different things in spite of settings I did and after rescanned devices

what is true?

and then, how can I know what agama will do with partitions (as yas did)?
which is formatted and with which filesystem and which is not formatted?
the list doesn’t show anything about this
