USB booted Tails. Now all I get is 'no bootable disk. Please insert disk then press button'.

I used me Toshiba Satellite to download Tails then used Rufus to install it a USB. I adjusted the BIOS to allow usb boot. Booted it up made a persistent volume on a second USB drive. I ejected the second and shut off computer. Now no matter what I do it only 'no bootable disk. Please insert disk and press any button'. F1 F2 and F12 all do nothing just repeats that phrase.

Hi,

After you've formatted the HDD, remove the USB drive and make sure to set your HDD as the first boot device again in BIOS. Once done that try booting it up again and see if that will solve the issue.
