I have followed all steps for catalina and big Sur installer images, it takes proper data to download and fill the drive, but upon starting the same container, there is no option to boot, there is a new entry 'mac OS Base System' that's it, opening it the same installer is getting up. There is also a separate entry of 'mac OS installer'. How to boot ? Or can you give some screenshots ? I saw your youtube video but, it also did not show what and how to do after installation.

I did, but I am still getting an installer only, read my issue again, I am having the macOS installer plus a new disk 'macOS base system' which if I go into it, it is again showing me all the options to re-install/time-machine/..., also if I see though the disk manager, I can see my previously erased and renamed drive, so I am not in a fresh start, but the old one is not booting also. How to boot using that ?

Did you run reinstall after initializing the disk?

Then the selection screen appears as follows.

Yes I did, but where you are getting the labelled disk to start, I am still getting the installer only and the base system, I saw this on a similar website but for me it is not working, I'll post a screenshot soon.

I did it, I was having problems with unmet dependencies while I was trying to install some required packages from qemu qemu-kvm libvirt-clients libvirt-daemon-system bridge-utils virt-manager libguestfs-tools, I fixed it with aptitude and it worked after install.
I am closing this issue with this comment, thank you.
