 - Can you check whether the "bootable" flash is set on the boot
   partition (i.e. the first partition).

 - Can you boot CoLo from the network (as you did for the installation)
   and then tell it to start Linux from disk.  Does this work?

 - Do you have a serial console?  If so, what does it say?

 - Do you have a smaller disk?  Some people claim disks over 30 GB
   don't work for them.
