Bug Description
In feisty-beta installation procedure there is "Advanced" button
in "Step 7/7" window that opens dialog where boot-loader stage1 target
can be changed (there is "(hd0)" MBR by default).
Here should be the right place to have also checkbox (checked by default),
which would be used to NOT overwrite any MBR at all, if unchecked.
Note 1: This is really needed option - the only way to avoid MBR rewrite..
Note 2: There is similar bug around, but that is about MBR rewrite confirmation
*outside* "Advanced" dialog..
Note 3: Placing this option here, in "Advanced" dialog, does not confuse
non-experienced users, nor it makes installation procedure more complicated
in any way
