Hello Francois,

Please, make sure you pick the right disk at the prompt, not you can
enter ? to get the list and judge by the size whether it is the right
one usually sd0. You need to write the MBR to it.

Usually following the prompts exactly (i.e. no customizations) will
result in a full install which works right of the bat. I use the
install72.img installer normally.

Please post all commands and output errors and make sure your BIOS does
not pose any restrictions (UEFI you'll need UEFI partition, etc..).

Good luck.

George
