Topic: Beta defaults to graphical installer

[compdoc]

The previous ISO (alpha?) had a script that bypassed the graphical installer, and installed SME on a standard partition rather than using an LVM layout.

Installing this Beta in a virtual machine, it seems to only provide the graphical installer with a default LVM layout. Is this the preferred file system now, or is this a problem that arises from using the Virtual Machine Manager and KVM?

Not a fan of LVM, I chose 'No LVM' from the Advanced Options menu.

Thank you for testing and feedback

from one of the workers on the road to alpha and beta

Rocky8 default is lvm, so underlying option is lvm.
We could easily change default to non-lvm and the advanced options to be lvm.
Text install will do an automatic install. No option to change settings

I should say el8 ( as rhel and CentOS 8 do the same)
