[Bug 880766] [NEW] Ubiquity fails with EFI and software RAID

[Andrew Cranwell]

Public bug reported:

Installing from a Mythbuntu amd64 CD booted in UEFI mode. Manually
created partitions using gdisk, created RAID1 using mdadm. Ran Ubiquity
installer to create /dev/md0p1 as ext4, install proceeded until aborting
at the end saying that grub-efi could not be installed.

Manual attempts to install grub also failed (both from the CD and
chroot), so the problem package may actually be grub2.
