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-oneiric-desktop-amd64+mac from 2011-09-21.
