Well unfortunately there is not much thing to try as the disk is simply
invisible. So I have tried a lot of web searches for one ;-) and also
other distro install with even less success (screen simply didn't even
display text, so I couldn't get very far - maybe that was a problem with
the intel HD graphics 6000 drivers?).

And so to directly answer your question:
1. create USB key to boot from
2. Boot from EFI disk
3. Try to find the disk when ask to chose a disk to install: and here it
only sees the USB key.

Thank you for the follow up.. i feel so :-/
