Hi, The steps that I followed were: 1. Use guided installation using full disk with graphical installer 2. I selected use entire disk and not a separate /home 3. It gave me the warning that its going to format the disk.At that point it formatted and I rebooted into the new system. There were two partitions there.
One /boot/efi and one root (/). Every time I tried to reconfigure it always ended with /boot not having enough space. At that point I went into the /boot partition to check what are the files. I curiously found that the files from the previous installation of Gentoo were there. Even though the installer said that it formatted the disk.
I was using the default that the guided installation uses. I didn't change anything there.
At that point as I said I formatted the disk separately to make sure it was properly formatted this time but the same thing happened.
The only way I could work around the bug was by selecting the manual partitioning instead of guided in the graphical installer.

On /boot.The default installation should not create a separate /boot partition, only creates /boot/efi for EFI installations when it cannot be already found. Could you provide the partition map you had when the error happened? A simple df -h would do the trick. Also, could you confirm the bootloader you were using (grub, grub-efi...)? Best regards, Miguel
