Bug Description

 In order to boot using chainloading Grub2 from Windows boot loader, I attempted to install Grub2 to sda5 using the 'Something Else' option during installation of Ubunu Mate 15.04 with win 8.1 in a dual boot. However the installation hangs.
     Installation completed perfectly when Grub2 was installed to sda. However, the main boot screen is now through Grub2.

no longer affects: ubuntu-mate
