Bug description:
  How to reproduce:

  1) Boot Ubuntu 14.04 64bit live
  2) Open "disks"
  3) Select 2 Hard drives and create a RAID 1 (mine had 2x 3TB SATA)
  4) Once finished open Ubuntu installer
  6) Click next and select the default settings (Erase everithing and install Ubuntu)
  7) Once installation finshes in reports: grub-install /dev/md127p2 failed and propts you to select other partition. Which evere you select, the system will report that the installation is completed but once you reboot you will get boot disk failure, as if there is no Grub installation
