Hight Sierra PB 3 only in APFS?

[Ledugue]

Good evening

I just tried to install Hight Sierra beta 3 and it only proposes an installation in APSF while beta 2 offered me the APFS option at the beginning of installation, which I did not check.
Is this normal?

Sorry for my English it is translated with Google translate, I am French.
Cordially.

I was able to format to HFS throught PARTITION and not ERASE. Did you tried that?

thank you,
Do you have the APFS formatting option when the installation is started?

Yes. I remember I was pretty happy about it. The formatting proccess was nos that smooth as there were some errors at first attempts. But the option was there.

Surprisingly, on the beta 2, I had the option of ticking to switch to APFS or stay in HFS if I do not check anything. But, on beta 3, I have no option, and it passes me to APFS automatically. Do not wish.

You may resolve with PikeRAlpha's workaround, avoiding the 2nd step install to format to APFS.
