installing over multiple drives

[dove]

I put together a bunch of hardware I had lying around which included a 64g ssd and a 120g ssd. In trying to install MX linux I formatted the the 64g with /boot,/root, /var,/swap and the 120g as /home. With the debian installer this I could make work but I cann't seem to get your installer to use this. It seems to only want to use one drive. Is there a way to install with this setup?

Is there a way to install with this setup?

Yes, except for extra var partition, that would working this way: just select boot-partition, and root-partition and swap on the first drive and select home-partition on the other drive. Not sure what format you have chosen, but I mostly choose ext4. for root-partition and home-partition, with no extra-boot-partition. I don't use normally an extra boot partition, as I rather prefer to keep /boot within the root-partition.
