![[SOLVED] First time installing linux (Debian). Got this error. Please help](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/3f7160e7-4d54-4039-bd89-0b9ace4a040a.jpeg){kind=link}
I installed it from the Calamaries Installer found in the LIVE USB ISO this time. And Instead of my primary hdd, I installed it on the other one. Works now, thanks for all of your support, dear nerds.

The original error actually makes it sound like there’s a partition on hda that’s bigger than hda itself.
Partition size wasn’t specified in any step of the setup. If that is the issue, Is there any way to fix it?
At some point, the installation should ask you the driver on which it should be installed and also how the driver should be interacted with; i.e full wipe and then installation or only specified partitions. You specified elsewhere that you don’t intend to dual-boot. Hence, selecting the correct drive and following the instructions for full wipe + installation (which should be regular/default installation) should have been sufficient.
That is what I did
As expected. At this point, consider following a video tutorial if you haven’t yet.
