I have an HP pavilion workstation, that came with windows 10 preinstalled, and I want to make it a dual boot with Linux. The problem is that even after doing all the following:
- Disabled secure boot
- Disabled windows fast start up
- Shrunk the windows C volume as an unallocated space (even created a new separate volume)
I still get no option (partition) in the installer.
I tried viewing the partitions in gparted but only the USB flash in which I have the installation image is shown
I tried gdisk and got the following (931 GB correspond to the windows volume, the rest 200 I have no idea what they represent):
I should also mention that the machine has an M.2 drive too. But even with optane memory disabled, I get the same errors in the ubuntu installer.
Any idea how to fix this, and get ubuntu installed?

If you carefully read the whole text in your image post, you can see that there are several problem on your disk layout. You use a GPT tool while your disk use MBR. ALso it seems the 2nd partition overlaps the first one. Fix that before installing ubuntu
