Im sorry I cant install.
Let me explain my problem:
boot from CD under virtualbox, then use installer, flag both, turn off machine, get out cd.
Using vanilla porteus no problems.
Using nemesis it says no operating system. For sake of completeness, I start graphical with changes, if that matters.
so assuming you are installing to a virtual disk in virtualbox, i think i can reproduce this.
i my case after installing, shutting down and ejecting cd/iso, i can reboot the virtual HD install first time ok, but then shutting down, booting the second time, it fails as you describe.
my guess is that the (lack of proper) shutdown procedure is corrupting the virtual HD or it's MBR at least. (probably due to improper dismounting of the drive, and maybe that vdi s are particularly sensitive to this)
i think this because, if (after reformatting and reinstalling) i booted using copy2ram cheatcode and it seemed to be ok, rebooting(multiple) no problem.
if this works for you, the good news is that copy2ram cheatcode works with changes= (be sure to hit tab at the boot menu to edit it the first time you boot after installation, then edit /boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg after you've booted.
but if you couldn't even boot the first time after installation, that i couldn't reproduce.
