CSM - Keep UEFI
Have been unable to install Grub with Ubuntu Studio on this machine.
Able to install with EFI boot directly to Ubuntu, or select alternate
boot device in BIOS to boot to Windows. But when Ubuntu installed -
typically "sudo update-grub" One time and then I have a boot menu that
lets me select Ubuntu or Windows without having to go into BIOS settings
to select my OS.
Have been able to do this with 14.04.4 Unity and some other Ubuntu based
distros but not Studio.
Will likely be able to resolve this issue on my own. I believe creating
the BIOS partition and selecting it for bootloader install caused the
error.
