I can run 14.04 live off of the installation DVD I made. Internet is connected. The screen that says erase disk - something else does not show up. It skips to the installation type screen. In the box labled device for bootloader installation /dve/sda is there. If I click on that it highlights orange. That is all I an do on that screen. There is nothing in the partition table box. I want to set up the slash, swap, and home partitions. I cant get anything to happen on that screen. If I hit continue an error comes up and it freezes up.

sudo parted -l

If not gpt partitioned.
sudo fdisk -lu
