I'm struggling with the manual partitioning part of the installer. It's really confusing, and I just need some straightforward guidance on what steps to take. Can someone explain how to set up manual partitions correctly?

For a basic manual setup, you could go for something like this:
- 2GB for the root partition (ext4) mounted at /
- 600MB for boot (Fat32) mounted at /boot/efi
- 2GB for swap
- Use the remaining space for your home directory (ext4) mounted at /home.
This basic layout should work for most needs, but make sure it suits your particular situation!
Manual partitioning is usually reserved for specific scenarios, but if you really need to do it yourself, it's essential to know your current partition layout and what you actually want to achieve. If you're just looking to install a Linux distro without much hassle, consider letting the installer use the available space. But if you have specific requirements, please share details about your current partitions and the distro you're installing!
