    Aloha,
    I also learned the hard way that before loading drivers the HDD/SDD must be partitioned and formatted. As soon as that has been accomplished installation can continue. Continuously trying to load drivers for my SSD that had not been partitioned and formatted while hoping for a different outcome was similar to the definition of stupid.
