I'm sure it's just my system, but I've tried the instructions (even checked I was using capital M instead of lowercase m) and they don't work in Ubuntu. I would love to get corrected here but I actually have an easier time creating the install media in Windows. I've followed the recipe 30 times this week. I would love to contribute to the GRUB boot information but I have no clue who works on that. I would prefer contacting them directly rather than hitting the mailing list with irrelevant information. Any insight regarding the GPT boot would be appreciated. As I said, MBR boot works fine. Thanks for the feedback, looking forward to any potential insight.
