I was able to get the install running again. The first time, I selected "Use entire disk" and that seemed to work fine. I then repeated this a few times and the remaining attempts failed. I finally tried the default of "Partition the disk" and that seemed to work. Incidentally, I'm confused as to what the difference is between the two options. Anyone know or is this a bug? I want to install on the entire disk and erase what was there before so I assumed "Use entire disk" was the right choice.
