i think that you are in UEFI mode and you see the Windows Manager that
registered itself to EUFI list of bootables ... you can choose "sda"
(your actual drive) and then install a linux.
So, do I add a new boot and say "/dev/sda" or just sda? Again, I am planning to
erase Windoze so there should only be the linux partitions.
I could not find the option for disable UEFI but i can see and install from the live cd
usb.
Many thanks,
Ranjan
