[Bug 1682614] [NEW] Installer fails to instal GRUB in HyperV VM

[PJD]

Public bug reported:

For some reason Ubuntu GNOME doesn't seem to like HyperV.  Previous
versions of Ubuntu would complete install, but would not successfully
boot.  17.04 yells every time I attempt to install GRUB.  Vanilla/Unity
Ubuntu has been installed before without issue.
