[Bug 1050444] [NEW] 12.04 LST dualboot on SSD, grub not installed right

[Jakub Juzl]

Public bug reported:

I was having some problems installing Ubuntu 12.04 LST alongside Windows 7.
Installation of Ubuntu went fine, but after rebooting the system booted straight into Windows without any choice of OS. I tried the installation twice, once choosing the Install alongside Windows 7 option and once setting up the partitions myself (same result). I managed to fix the problem using Boot-Repair live CD using the automated repair option.
I have two discs:
SSD (for windows and Ubuntu)
HDD (other data)
