So after thinking about it for a long time, I’ve finally decided to switch to Linux permanently. (No dual boot)

I’m trying to install Pop!_OS, but here’s the problem. I don’t have a pendrive or any portable drive right now, so I tried a workaround. I created a 10GB FAT32 partition on my disk, mounted the Pop!_OS ISO files into that partition, and then attempted to boot it using Windows Advanced Startup options.

The installer actually launches, but when I get to the part where I need to select a drive to install the OS, it shows no drives at all.

I’m kinda stuck here and not sure what I messed up. Is this method even valid, or is there something specific I need to fix for the drives to show up?

Any help would be really appreciated.
