[Bug 1471503] Re: Can't install 14.04.1 on new workstation (from CD)

[Phillip Susi]

You have multiple disks in your system and the primary one ( /dev/sda )
is blank.  You either need to create some kind of partition on it ( any
will do ) or choose to install grub to a different drive and make sure
your bios will boot from that drive instead.
