Ubuntu installer with two disks: whihc one will be selected by “erase disk and install”
I have two disks on my computer, with:
sda: backup disk (has 12.04)
sdb: disk for system (has now 18.04)
Making a fresh install, I want to use the option erase disk and install Ubuntu (so that I can use encryption, otherwise I would just use option something else), on sdb, not sda. The installer correctly recognized there are two systems, but says: will delete all ... in all operating systems
How can I make sure it installs on sdb? Or will it really erase both disks?
Thanks!
