It isn't wrongly identifying; your laptop is booting the cd in UEFI
mode. You need to get it to boot the cd in bios mode if you don't want
to use UEFI.

Yesterday, I repeated a fresh install with the daily build of yesterday.
The problem is still there: Ubiquity installs Ubuntu fine, and installs
Grub as well. Only... it wrongly identifies the BIOS as EFI, so it
