Hi there,
sry if this is known subject but I can't find anything on forum - is there any option to install LibreElec on specific partition without wiping whole HDD?
I have 2TB HDD full of movies and TV shows, I freed 15GB and created new partition which I would like use as system disk but installer says it wipe whole HDD not just partition - is there any way around it? 
Thanks for any advice, L.
Not what you want to hear, install, wipe whole disk, use gparted to partition the storage partition, & copy back the movies

Technically no because LE requires TWO partitions (boot and storage) although it may be possible to use the current main partition for storage as long as it's Linux formatted, e.g. EXT4 (not possible if NTFS or FAT32 formatted). The wiki has some high level details of the manual install process. All of our installers are written for "nuke and pave" installs.
Keeping your operating system on the same drive as the data is not a good solution to begin with.
