I got chance to look at this again.
No of that seamed to work.
I found an old Windows boot USB and that boots, so it is not the usb
boot system.
I created a new USB drive with the latest OI and I still get the same issue.
May be I am using the Win32DiskImager wrong or there is an issue
creating the bootable USB drive.
Is anyone else attually doing this from Windows?

in your case, the problem starts from the fact that we do not get
information about partitions, on screenshot, all disks are listed
without partitioning information.
We would like to see something like:
disk0: BIOS drive C (….)
disk0p1: EFI 256MB
disk0p2: ….
and so on. I’m not really sure what did happen while usb image was
written to the stick, but something seems to be wrong there. Does
windows see any partitions there?
I had put in an old disk that had been used as a raid for the boot
drive. It was not formated. I found another and it now shows that as
disk1 D with a two windows paritions.
It must be booting, from the usb, as without the OI usb tumbdrive it
says there is no bootable disk.
As I seam to have something else coming up as disk0 C - there must be
another M2 like drive which is has placed as C.
I wonder if the USB boot assumes it is the second disk?
So assuming that the M2 should be there only with the USB, I took out
the phyical drive. It does the same. So that is not it.
May be later I will try taking out the M2 as well.
Thanks.
