The ssd is portable, there is a regular NVME inside its case, which can be inserted into a pci slot. Could this be the reason that the installer asks to format it into an old mac os extended? OS version: Sonoma.
Upd: The problem was in the option CustomSMBIOSGuid, it had to be disabled in the config.plist
