hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
replacing a partition (sda1), format ext4

grub install failed :(appears to be looking for uEFI when it's an old BIOS box)
`ubuntu-bug ubiquity` .. on hitting OKAY to restart box..
OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG.. 
hit enter and again
OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG..
hit enter and again
OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG..

i got bored of the loop & SysRq REISUB'd the box
NOTE; I manually filed the bug report at terminal; CTRL+A:LT+T to open term. 
and I wondered if the installer tried to `ubuntu-bug` again that created the 
issue with shutdown, ie. started a process that was behind the 'install 
finished, press enter to reboot' but that's opinion.
