[Bug 1193755] [NEW] Bootloader doesn't install after 12.04 > 13.04 on macbook

[Johan Domeij]

Public bug reported:

I have had Ubuntu 12.04.2 installed on my 2009 macbookpro, ran great,
installed without problems. Burned a new dvd with 13.04 the other day
and was going to install from scratch. Hit "try ubuntu" and install,
then spoted the "upgrade 12.04.2 to 13.04" option and chose that.
Everything seemd fine, untill the "cannot install bootloader" box
appeared. Tried to install to sda and sda2, but it didn't work. Sry for
crapy bugreport, I don't really know what to write :/
