[Bug 1302362] Re: Installer crashed while installing package `grub2'.

[JONNALAGADDA Srinivas]

Thank you for the response!

If there was one such warning about BIOS vs. EFI disk partition layouts,
it certainly was not prominent.  I ran through the procedure twice, and
did not notice it.  Perhaps it should be not just a warning, but a hard
error.  There is not much point in continuing with the installation
procedure that is destined for a known failure!  In the face of a hard
error, the user is forced to correct the disk partition scheme before
retrying.

Just my two cents, of course!
