My parents are fed up with windows 11 slowing down their old HP desktop to near unusable levels. It is so bad that the right click menu can take up to 6 seconds to load. Anyway I created a free 900GB ext4 partition that I want to install to but how do I get the fedora KDE installer to detect that free space (sda6)?

    Did you click on the ‘Refresh’ button (last image, toolbar)? What happens if you click the yellow-ish area labelled with ‘sd6’ there?

      sd6 is the free ext4 partition i wanted to install to that won’t get detected. Fedora only detects 10 MiB free and if you check the partitiona in tge installer in the second image, it’s under ‘unknown’ ratger than where I want as free space for some reason
