    You can get a decent SSD for it for some $30. I mean, 240G should be plenty, right?
    It would be interesting if it managed to boot into Windows with a brand new virgin disk...

      If you're wiping the drive clean (no windows), disable RST in your BIOS, then re-run the installer. This should allow you unfettered access to the drive.
      Thank you for that advice oshunluvr. I had the same error message on my Dell laptop and when I disabled RAID and instead used AHCI it worked. No more error message.

      I'm facing the same situation as you but for a different reason than you. Here https://www.kubuntuforums.net/showth...ial-files-only if you can help.
