[Bug 1530445] [NEW] cannot install ubuntu alongside windows 10 on asus x552mj

[Pavel Petrovic]

Public bug reported:

I received this in both cases - when manually creating a partition and
trying to install grub to /dev/sda4, and when just choosing an option
"install ubuntu alongside existing OS" - which stupidly does not offer
an option without swap, but why would one want to create swap on ssd,
he? I wasted a full day with trying to install latest Ubuntu on a normal
laptop with a fresh install of Win10. This is really BAD.
