First of all thank you for the follow-up.
Just for the sake of completeness here are all the step

- I acquired an refurbished 500Gb regular hard

Thank you for the follow-up. It feel like some personal training.

Public bug reported:
At the end of the installation of ubuntu-gnome 13.10, it failed to install the
bootloader.
The original disk was a SSD
The installer allowed me to choose another disk, I tried without success on a
normal drive.
The partition are as follow, I asked the install to format
such problem.
I found that some people encounter the same but always in a dual-boot
environment. I only have ubuntu on this system.
I also read that it might be related to the disk alignment...
Anyway, I'll keep searching, sorry if I wasted some of your time with
this bug report.
