Public bug reported: Said bootloader failed. I aborted the install and it warned me I would possibly need to install a boot loader manually. I have no idea how to do that. I had the Ubuntu 16 version sucessfully installed and I thought I would install the new version. When I booted from the download disc of 17.10 it did not see my previously installed Ubuntu 16 which was okay as I did that yesterday and I lost no data.
