Bug Description
i have a dual boot set up, i put in a brand new windows 10 on my main drive and attempted to put a new live usb version of Ubuntu Mate 18.04 lts nothing special just followed the installer prompts, nothing fancy. all was new, and again i get the same problem. i tried to eliminate all my potential mistakes and hoped for the best, but no. apparently , the installer put a version onto the partition but cant boot into it, but i am not sure. why it waits till the very end to notify of a crash is not good. it would turn most people away from ubuntu totally. i have endured over a dozen tries both plain ubuntu 18 and mate versions on live cd and live use. cant make it go. even the workaround , installing the bootloader through the repair method , copy/paste failed to boot into the supposed system what's up. dont want any new linux users? isnt good.
