Title:
  problem with installing and booting ubuntu

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have tried to open gparted, removed all partitions and created one
  150 MB at the beginning (unformated grub_bios flag), then one 4GB less
  than max (ext4), then the rest 3.72 GB (linux-swap).

  Then I ran boot-repair - everything went smooth (summary: Boot
  successfully repaired.

  Please write on a paper the following URL:
  http://paste2.org/tFf8f5hY

  
  In case you still experience boot problem, indicate this URL to:
  boot.repair at gmail.com or to your favorite support forum.

  You can now reboot your computer.)

  Then I tried to install ubuntu, using the USB stick that I am running
  the live session with.

  Made the Ext4 mount point at "/" and began to install.. everything
  went fine until the "grub2 installation" then a failure message
  appeared and the installation closed.

  Thanks for any advices..
