Cause of error: the hard disk format was changed to GPT partition when vmware-vmvisor was installed on the machine.

Solution: Press CTRL + ALT + F2 to enter the Linux text interface when the boot partition is formatted,

Input:Fdisk-l// At this time, you will see that the mark at the end of the boot partition is GPT

Assume it is/dev/SDA.

Input:Parted

If it is your partition by default, it is best to switch. If not

Input:Select/dev/SDA

Input:Mklabel msdos

Select [Yes/No]:Yes

Prompt that the label is changed to [GPT]:Msdos

Quit

Press CTRL + ALT + F1 to return to the installation page. Delete all partitions and re-partition the partitions.
