Bug Description
Binary package hint: ubiquity
Prior to Maverick, the installer had a choice on the last screen, under advanced, to either not install grub, or install it somewhere other than /dev/sda. As of Maverick, the choice of where to install grub to has been moved to the partitioning screen. This is nice, but there is no option to not install grub at all. The drop down list of locations to install grub to needs to include an option for NONE OF THE ABOVE.

Since I've seen others complain about this on the forums, I would mark this as confirmed, but I'm going to go ahead and skip to triaged since I'm setting the correct priority and I believe all information needed to fix the problem is here.
