Now that I can boot, I'm getting an "invalid partition" error during installatio

This is a discussion about Now that I can boot, I'm getting an "invalid partition" error during installatio in the Everything Linux category; I'm installing Fedora on a machine I don't care much about, so anything to get it installed is fine with me. How can I completely format the hard drive to remove all partitions and start fresh for Fedora?.

During the install. tell it to "automatically" set up the partitions. Then it will do with your hard drive as it wishes.

I did.
 
Then I tried it without the GUI and it worked.
 
So I'm trying the GUI install again with "everything" included in Fedora.
