Public bug reported:
I tried installing a daily build of 16.04. Fatal error during
installation: grub failed to install on /dev/sda.
I used custom partition setup to format an existing partition as /
(btrfs) and mounting another existing partition as /home (ext4). I've
never tried btrfs as a root filesystem before, but I was feeling
adventurous. The installer gave me no indication that there may be
problems with btrfs root filesystems, but I'll try again with / as ext4.
