Please let me precise the problem. Once the main installation process is finished you get into the options of installing the boot record.
Following message gets displayed: The following other operating systems have been detected on this computer: [......] If all of your operating systems are listed above, then it should be safe to install the boot loader to the monster boot record of your first hard drive. When your computer boots, you will be able to choose to load one of the seas operating systems on your new system. Install the GRUB boot loader to the master boot record? <Yes> <No>" Everybody would understand that the next step would install directly the GRUB loader to the hard disk, Pretty nobody would expect that the next step would be asking where to install the GRUB loader! So, if you need the boot loader installed on the USB stick, it is natural to answer that question with <No> instead of <Yes> . Then you come into the confusing process displaying the UUIDS and telling that you must install GRUB... If you answer <Yes>, then the process is straightforward. IMHO this can easily be improved as requested in my first mail. Regards and thanks for considering.
