Is it a SATA drive? They are seen as SCSI drives.

Try booting from the live disk and typing "sudo fdisk -l /dev/hd?" and
"sudo fdisk -l /dev/sd?", then post the results here. Maybe that will
give someone an idea.

My next thought is, depending on the results that gives you, to run
fdisk interactively from the live disk before doing the install and
using the partitions thus created to install on. Someone here can lead
you through that if it comes to that.
