Title:
  ubiquity crashed with InstallStepError in configure_bootloader()

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubiquity

  Installation via live-cd with 200gb 'free' space, two ntfs-partitions already existing with windows 7 RC1.
  mountpoints does not seem to pop up correctly either - gparted nor the graphical installer shows the partitions correct.
  Disks in 'fake raid' 1, with mobo controller, can mount 'em manually without problems. This is the 64-bit version of 9.10 (same with win 7). Previous bugreports does not really seem to fit the description for this - if I am wrong, please nullify this report.

  Thank you in advance.
