Title:
  Cannot create bios boot partition from manual partitioner in ubiquity

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Precise Desktop Beta2 amd64+mac

  In the manual partitioner, the list of partition types doesn't include
  'biosgrub' and installation cannot continue on a disk without an
  existing partition of this type.

  Ideally the partitioner will create it automatically if it doesn't
  already exist.
