Public bug reported:
The "Something else" option (= manual partitioning screen) allows the user to
change the location where GRUB will be installed.
("Device for bootloader installation" combobox).
AFAIK, the default entry in this combobox is /dev/sda. Currently the combobox
also allows to select any partition (eg /dev/sda1 , /dev/sda2...)
The following entries are useless and SHOULD be removed:
- all partitions except the partition containing /boot
The following entries break Windows boot and MUST be removed:
- all partitions containing Windows boot files (bootmgr, ntldr, EFI partitions)
