Title:
  Trying to install saucy on a kvm vm. always crashes installing the
  bootloader.

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Trying to install Saucy on a KVM vm. The filesystem is /vda1 mounted
  on /boot, vda2 and vdb1 ate btrfs raid1 swap is on vda. Installer
  always says it can't install bootloader on vda, pick another device.
  But no device works. I'v tried many time with different configurations
  of the virtual disks, always ends the same.

  Thanks,
  Barry
