Choice of disk for Bootloader Install

[MikeDrewitt]

During the live disk installation, you are never presented with an option on where to install a bootloader. It defaults itself to /dev/sda which is fine, but unless you see in the fine print that is where the bootloader is going to be installed you'll wonder why your shiny new OS is not booting. Also, this could be a problem for people just wanting to try this OS without having to muck up their primary drive with a new bootloader for every new install. Not really sure if this was ever ment as a bug, or as a feature to keep things simple, but it is annoying none the less.

I believe the next version of calamares has this feature, but it's not yet in the stable branch.

Had the same issue.

You'll need to change your BIOS settings. Force it to only boot in Legacy mode, not UEFI.

Then boot from the Apricity OS Live CD. You should now see a WHITE boot screen instead of the previous black one. Boot from it. Now you'll be able to change the location of the bootloader installation.
