[Bug 1756767] [NEW] It crashed during installation. Could not install GRUB

[Marco Pereira]

Public bug reported:

This is a Windows 10 running in one hard drive and Ubuntu being
installed in another.  I thought I wouldn't even need GRUB, I would just
choose which HD to start with.

In any event it crashed, I suppose it is because it wouldn't install
grub on the Windows HD and didn't want to install in the Ubuntu side.

I don't understand the problem properly.
