[Bug 998366] [NEW] Grub crashed during installation

[Cédric Cornez]

Public bug reported:

The process of installation goes well until the installation of Grub. It then crashes, and let the system in a complete unusable state: no more Windows MBR, nor valid Grub to boot Linux. I tried twice, each time with a full format of my Ext4 / partition.
Maybe is it related to the fact I try installing Linux on a RAID device...
