"Missing operating system" after installing Ubuntu on a MBP

[Tom Kaltenbrunner]

After installing precise-alternate-amd64+mac (20120423.2), I got a bootable disk called "Windows" in my boot menu. Selecting it only displays: "Missing Operating System".
I installed from CD, using the suggested default partition scheme. For more info see attached install-report.
