I had the same error come up. I was installing on a Dell Optiplex
desktop.
I clicked on OK and got a further message "Bootloader install failed" "Sorry,
an error occurred and it was not possible to install the bootloader at the
specified location."
"How would you like to proceed?
() Choose a different device to install the bootloader on:
[gives dropdown with choices of all the devices]
() Continue without a bootloader
() Cancel the installation.
I chose "Choose a...." and selected "/dev/sda" from the drop down, which
was the correct device for the drive I was installing onto.
Clicked OK and it just sat there did nothing. [repeated several times
with same result]
I tried other choices and was not able to get the installation to
proceed.
