Welcome to the forums.

Is there something special about this system? Does BIOS report drive correctly. Is it a standard PC or server type with RAID? Or UEFI?

Does liveCD or USB boot?

If you can boot liveCD post this:

sudo fdisk -lu
or
sudo parted - l

Google turned this up, perhaps it will help you:
"What finally worked was removing the drive from the SAS port and connecting to the SATA port. Everything installed smoothly after that."
