Are you trying to install into a VM or is this a straight up boot to install to metal?

Thanks for replying.
The latter. I’m not interested in VMs and wouldn’t know where to start with one.

I can recreate this error with the lts iso on a legacy BIOS system. Is that what you’re using?
Do you need lts kernel?
You can attempt an install with the regular iso and install the lts kernel post installation.

I think so, yes. If I was setting up a new system I might use UEFI instead but as things stand I don’t think I can do that without wiping the drive and starting again.
