Bug Description

Installation of bootloader was intended to do on first partition of my second physical hdd. The Windows 7 loader is placed at the first partition of first hdd, and my intention was to add the Grub 2 Bootloader in Windows 7 via an BCD editor.

But at the very end of the installation of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS "precise pengolin" this critical error occured. None of the tried partitions nor MBR's of my hdd's worked for the installation.
