Looks like something goes wrong with preparation of the installation USB stick. According to logs, there is only one partition, but on actual installation image there should be two. Make sure you copy the image as a whole device (on linux - without "1" in device name).

My apologies, this was the issue.
I should have read the guide more closely - I am used to writing in ISO mode with Rufus.

Thank you for all the work you do on this amazing project!
