Bug description:
  Installation of Ubuntu 13.10 on a Lenovo C440 device with preinstalled Win8 (OEM) including secure boot (EFI). At the end of the installation an error message shows up: Die Ausfuehrung von grub install dummy ist fehlgeschlagen. (German) Furthermore it's said, that the failure is severe.
