Title:
  reinstall on dual boot windows 8 uefi system

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Half way through the re-install (Ubuntu 13.04) I get a grub error
  message described as 'fatal'. I've tried twice.

  My partition structure is probably wrong (I got a message about this
  when I tried simple re-install) but I adjusted it and pressed next and
  there was no indication that anything was wrong.

  System is a small Asus Vivo S200 notebook with UEFI and Windows 8.

  Thanks for any advice,
  Tom O'Hare
  PS 1st instal was successful but Ubuntu was not presented as an option when I restarted.
