[Bug 1286448] Re: The installer crashed when when it tried to install the bootloader

[Mustafa Muhammad]

After selecting my EFI partition be used as EFI System Partition,
installation went smoothly, I think that the installer must not allow
the partitioning to be done if no EFI partition is configured (of course
only on EFI systems)
