Bug Description
When I install a new system, I do not want the boot process to be modified. So I generally ask grub to be installed in a location where it cannot be installed, to avoid my specific boot sequence to be modified. I run grub-mkconfig to update grub menu in the way I want it to be modified.
Please, insert an option in ubiquity to dismiss grub's installation.

You need to install grub to a hard disk such as /dev/sda, rather than a partition as you did ( /dev/sdb1 ).
