Change install drive to hdd instead of nvme

[oligopolycorp]

Hello, steamos looks for an nvme drive when trying to install from a usb stick to the drive on my device. It works and looks great running on the usb stick. I'm going to install to a laptop hdd but even though I should know, how do I put the hdd before the nvme when the cli opens when I try installing? Cli says nvme does not exist on one line then asks no nvme drive detected? I searched a lot and couldn't find how to do it. HDD shows in dolphin it's ext-4. Which only matters because it has Manjaro on it.
Hopefully I have to mount un mount something.Or put (?)' /dev/hdd0n1' or something similar in cli is the trick to install to the hdd. Thanks for any help.

In Bios you set the drive priority. If all your drives are connected and working any os in install mode will ask you what drive you like to use.

So you have hdd and nvme.
If you are in cli type lsblk to list all storage available at that moment.

maybe your drive is not formatted and mounted...

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

I am not great with Linux, but I hope this helped. You might ask in Linux forum for extra if this would not move you forward.
btw here is custom install on SteamOS

Thank you! With the link you left I was able to unlock the nvme requirement. I have it working on my hdd and the os setup page looks a lot like big picture mode.
