Bug Description
On my Lenovo B570e laptop with EFI BIOS, Ubiquity fails to install Grub. With the LiveUSB of Precise Pangolin 12.04, amd64, daily live of March, 12.
However, when I *manually* install Grub from the terminal in the live session of Desktop CD, it does install fine. Then I can boot into Precise from the hard disk after all. This happens both in Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Lubuntu 12.04.
I have attached both /var/log/syslog from the LiveUSB-session and a hardware list (output of lshw).

The log file seems to think that it installed GRUB successfully. What exactly was your symptom? Did it simply fail to boot?
Exactly what did you type to install GRUB from the terminal in the live session?
