From my remote position i would say that your firmware wanted
to see the GPT rather than an MBR partition table.
So it would be EFI and not BIOS.

Whatever, congrats to your success.

I would guess you're right :-). It's weird though, because the actual installation seems to fail afterwards (the partitioning complains about something related to EFI, I would need to double check). But that's another issue. 

Thanks again for your help!

 

Have a nice day :)
