Bug Description
I performed manual partitioning. In addition to a swap partition and the reiserfs partition, I left several megabytes free at the beginning of the disk for the GPT/bios_grub partition (the approach works fine for ext4 partitions). The installation proceeds without error. On reboot the Mac "Folder with question mark" icon is shown (meaning no bootable partitions found).
This is ubuntu-

And the output from 'sfdisk -d -uS' after the partitioning is attached. Is it correct that the reiserfs partition type should be 'ef' ?
