I’m unsure what is going wrong and not having any luck finding a command or file I can tail to figure out why it’s having so many problems finishing. Last weekend I tried just installing mint to some unused space on a drive but that seemed to get stuck in the same place. This weekend I’m using the “install alongside windows” option in the installer with the same behavior.

This is being installed from a USB drive into an nvme SSD and I’m really lost s to why it would be like this after more than an hour. Any advice on how to figure out why it gets stuck is appreciated. Hoping to transfer some files over after this is done and then reevaluate if I want/need the windows partition.
