Can you see the partitions at all?

Perhaps  you can try "fdisk -l" on one of the text consoles, and check 
what is find-able.

(during install, you have perhaps two text consoles in which you can type 
some commands. They are accessable by typing ctrl-alt-f1..f10. Some of 
them are logs, some text console, one graphical).

I don't know if the command "file -s" is available there, to test the 
device nodes.
