Weatherlink 6510 Usb Installation Failed

You find all current Ubuntu and Ubuntu family iso files via this link, also Ubuntu Server,
There are files with the name MD5SUMS in each subfolder, where you find the md5sums of the listed iso files, so that you can check that the download was good.
If you are running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or newer, you can use the buitlt-in Ubuntu Startup Disk Creator, but the versions in previous releases of Ubuntu are problematic. Instead you can use mkusb or Disks (gnome-disks) to install the iso file to a USB stick or memory card. Disks is also built into standard Ubuntu and several Ubuntu family flavours (Kubuntu, Lubuntu, ... Xubuntu).

After solving problems to create a good boot drive you want help to 'see' and to partition the target drive (the internal drive). I expand the answer because I want to use a picture and it might help other users too, who have similar problems.
The Ubuntu Server iso files contain a 'debian installer' in text mode, and it is not as easy to use as the installer 'ubiquity' in the desktop iso files of standard Ubuntu. So I suggest that you use gparted which is a tool with a graphical user interface.
Boot a USB live drive made from an Ubuntu desktop iso file if you have one. If you have not, you can download and try a rather small (230 MiB or 252 MiB) self-extracting image file for Windows (to be installed to a USB pendrive with Win32 Disk Imager).
Self-extract to a 1 GB img file.
Run Win32DiskImager to install it into a USB pendrive (or a memory card connected via a USB adapter).

There are more details, where to download the files etc, in the following link. These two similar systems are Debian linux systems with gparted (and dus),
which is also described in previous posts in that tutorial thread in the Ubuntu Forums. Boot this USB live drive and use gparted to select the internal drive and to edit the partition table to get what you want:
The following link might help, if you have not used gparted before,
