>From a root terminal[1] in the live USB, can you see the disk with
`parted -l' or `fdisk -l'? If yes, you could format it from the command
line, and then try starting the installer. Needless to say backup
first. If you can't see it even with parted, then I'm afraid I don't
have any thoughts how to proceed.

[1] I think sudo should work, otherwise try su -, I think in a live
