[Bug 1507448] Re: Kubuntu installation into external disk ruins internal disk boot whilst leaving external disk unbootable

I'm writing in to confirm that this problem persists in Kubuntu 16.04.1.
I used a bootable Kubuntu usb key to install Kubuntu to an external
drive, and the installer trashed my grub configuration on an *unrelated*
internal Fedora hard drive.

Workaround in case anybody sees this:  unplug any hard drives that you
don't want the Kubuntu installer to touch prior to doing your
install....
