Title:
  Elementary OS Jupiter Installer failed to install its bootloader
  (GRUB) to any available drive/partition

Status in elementary OS:
  New

Bug description:
  I used the graphical installer provided with the x64 flavor of the
  Elementaery OS Jupiter liveCD. I tried to install Jupiter to an
  external HDD, which seemed to go well untill it was time to install
  the bootloader at the last step of the installation. At that point, I
  was notified that GRUB failed to install, and was prompted to choose
  another location, but all drives, in addition to all partitions
  existing on those drives, yielded the same failure to install.

  I will likely not be able to boot Elementary.

  (I am a novice user to Ubuntu/Elementary, so I cannot answer extremely
  advanced questions. I am willing to help all I can, though.)

  Note: I found no 'syslog' in /var/log.
