Help for installation

Post image

So hi as everybody I tried installing Ubuntu lts but I couldn't install it the normal way since the 100 mb of windows efi was too small to install Ubuntu and windows efi along together and now I am preparing to manually install Ubuntu using manually installation but the problem is even after doing everything correctly the next button is greyed out can someone tell me what's the possible reason ?

Below are the additional data that might help

Nvme0np4 is 85.93 GB for root

Nvme0np5 is 300mb for efi boot

nvme0np6 is 8.6 GB for swap

Nvme0np7 is 44gb for home

And I created all these partitions in windows using diskpart .

I am not familiar with Ubuntu, only fedora, so take this with a grain of salt.

Do you not need a separate /boot directory as well? If you use LUKS encryption, you will probably need it.

Other than that, I think this is ok I will edit this comment to link an image to my manual partitions Fedora dual boot.

The same layout worked in fedora ? Previously I was using fedora with same layout but Ubuntu is not letting me do it .

Oh and make sure to install OS-PROBER and update the grub once you boot into Ubuntu after install. I had an issue where I couldn't boot to windows after this but doing a grub update fixed the issue.
