Unable to install Vanilla OS 2: "failed to name partition: E"

[Yoarhim]

Issue Description

Every time that I try to install Vanilla OS, I get the same cryptic error: "failed to name partition: E".
I use a unowhy Y13 from 2019, so there is an ssd inside.

Steps to Reproduce

• Tried to install Vanilla OS
• But it failed

On what version of Vanilla OS this happens?

Vanilla OS 2 Orchid

There is the log of the installation process, if it can help:

I am seeing the same error message when trying to install Vanilla OS 2 on a Chuwi tablet.

@mpanhans
I'm pretty sure this is caused by trying to install to EMMC storage, which is not supported as of now.

If your drive shows up as "mmcblk*" when running "lsblk" in a terminal, then this is the case.

[mpanhans]

Yes that sounds right. It is eMMC storage. I do see mmcblk* from lsblk.

If anyone is experiencing this bug and you're not installing to EMMC storage, try going into gparted through the installer and create a gpt partition table on your drive. NOTE: This will delete everything on your drive

Please report back if that was successful.
