press “ö”

select no for the weird e

select your primary network interface

enter your hostname

enter the full name for the first user

if the autoselected timezone is correct select yes, otherwise select no and chose the correct location

if you had a server before, select unmount partitions

select “Manual” and then set up LVs (LVM)

select your disk

set use as “physical volume for LVM” and select “Done setting up the partition”

select the “1 GB FREE SPACE”

select “Create logical volume”

select your VG

choose a name for your LV

then select the size (if you have the chance to extent your PV/VG, you should create a 10GB root and some fitting /etc /var /home mounts as well. in my case I cannot extent it so I chose to use all on /)

select your new LV

set “XFS” and the mountpoint “/”

it should look like this now, if so, write changes to disk

during the next loadingscreens you will be asked for a proxy, if you dont have one leave it blank, otherwise insert your proxyip
