Bug Description
I want to install a command-line system using the alternate CD
the alternate text installation should let the user choose where to install grub, not by a sucessful detection of windows xp then pop up a choose, because in my case, grub will install automatically
thats what it does in the live cd installation gui, but the livecd has no option to install a command-line system (another talk)
I have a ntfs partition on hd(0,0) with no xp/os , i only want to use its ntldr + grldr to boot.
and i want to install ubuntu on hd(0,1) mount as / , hd(0,2) mount as swap
/dev/sda | ms-mbr
/dev/sda1 | ntfs | boot flag
/dev/sda2 | ext3 | mount as /
/dev/sda3 | swap | mount as swap
which is affected by this problem
