Title:
  grub-installer for yakkety failed to install to my crucial mx100 ssd
  with multiple boots

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  To reproduce install the latest 64 bit amd yakkety lubuntu image.
  Install with manual partitoning using an ext4 filesystem alongside
  several other ubuntu installations.

  I expected this to install the grub bootlaoder after finsihing the
  installation. Instead it failed to install the grub bootloader. and I
  got the problem with ubiquitybecause of this. And I am reporting this
  before having to manually install a bootloader.
