Title:
  Unable to Install Grub2 on Mac

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have tried several times to install Ubuntu onto an old MacBook.

  I have tried for several days and nothing. I have followed
  instructions but everything has failed so far.

  It is working fine on LiveCD, it is just Grub that's an issue.
