Anaconda bootloader installation error on laptop ASUS ROG Zephyrus M16 (GU603HE)

bug
Hardware:
- ASUS ROG Zephyrus M16 GU603HE
- NVIDIA RTX 3050 Ti
- 1TB NVMe drive (Kingston SNVS1000G)
- 512GB NVMe drive (Intel SSDPEKNU512GZ)

Issue:
I'm getting a consistent Anaconda installer error during Bazzite installation. The error occurs at the final step when writing the bootloader configuration:
org.fedoraproject.Anaconda.BootloaderInstallationError:
failed to write boot loader configuration
org.fedoraproject.Anaconda.BootloaderInstallationError:
failed to write boot loader configuration


What I've tried:
- Bazzite KDE - same error
- Bazzite GNOME - same error
- Fedora Kinoite - same error
- Secure Boot is disabled
- Installing on entire disk (not dual boot during these tests)
- UEFI mode confirmed (not Legacy BIOS)

Everything works smoothly until the final bootloader installation step. The installer completes partitioning and file copying without issues, then fails at some point of the installation.

I saw in another Discord thread that someone fixed this by disabling "anti USB setup" in BIOS - I've searched my BIOS but can't find this specific setting.

Any help would be appreciated!
