Title:
  Ubuntu got installed on a partition that the bootloader can't boot
  from

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi all,
  I just did a fresh install on a 750GB disk in my Lenovo IdeaPad Z570.

  The first two partitions where NTFS  the 3dr a extended partition.
  I cleared ~600GB space for Ubuntu starting somewhere after 74GB on the disk.

  The installer ran without problems and said all si finished if I would
  want to restart.

  Upon restart there awas no Ubuntu boot loader - it went straight to
  Win7.
