I am trying to install Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS on an existing partition on a Win 10 + Ubuntu machine (replacing the existing 16.04). However, on the disk setup stage, the installer does not show any existing partitions on the disk and treats everything as free space. I have referred to some links (e.g. this tutorial, this manual partitioning and this) but did not find anything useful. Can someone provide any guidance on this?
The following is the output for fdisk -l
