I have recently put a new computer into service. It is a Dell Vostro 3910 running Windows 11. In addition to the C:\ drive , I have a 2TB SSD for Linux which the OS found as the D:\ drive.

The installation went as I have come to expect, until it got to formatting the drive. I was presented with a long list of type of partition. I tried gpt and started going around in circles. When asked if that was my choice i selected 'Yes' and was presented with the list of possible partitions again. At this point I aborted the installation.

I have been using Debian for about twenty years now, and have never encountered this situation. I would appreciate some guidance.

Thanks in advance.
