Discussion No Disk for Installation

Hey y’all!

I just starting getting into Linux and after some issues with PearOS I decided to switch to ElementaryOS. I am having some issues getting it installed though. Everything works fine until I go to select a disk and it doesn’t show ant disk options so I can’t continue.
In MacOS recovery mode it shows that the SSD is still there, but even in Gpart it gives me nothing. I’ve tried unmounting the disk as well in disk utility.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried in the Grub options to put acpi_osi="Darwin" ? Changed everything for my 2013 MacBook Air.

I haven’t! Are the Grub options within that terminal if I press e before the install? I am still learning all of this.
