Bug Description

When installing via netboot of a usb drive, my pc sees the usb drive as /dev/sda, and the internal harddisk of the laptop as /dev/sdb. If I select 'guided, whole disk' during install and specify /dev/sdb as the disk to use, grub still gets installed on /dev/sda by default. I know that the graphical installer will install grub to the same drive ubuntu installs to by default, I think this behaviour is preferred.
