Description:

I installed my system using the x86_64 netinstall image.
I found out an issue when installing the grub bootloader: it only proposed to install grub on the MBR of my drives (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb), when I wanted to install it on a specific partition (/dev/sda6, I am using chainloader from another Grub in the MBR). The list of partitions was simply not there.

Additional info:
Issue in 2011.08.19 installer. The previous installer allowed installing grub on any partition.

This task depends upon
