Comments/Problems:
Install was quite easy and straight forward. It might have been nice to
have a little more contextual help the first time into aptitude as I
found it confusing until I got the hang of how to get around/what keys
did what.
I also had trouble setting up Grub as it was not clear what it was
telling me to do. It would be nice if it told you how to set up dual
boot. Instead I can only boot into Linux (which I will fix shortly).

The installer does detect other operating systems and adds a boot option
for them in grub, except if you selected a mountpoint for your windows
partition during partitioning.
I would expect that's what happened [1].

Closing this installation report as there were no real issues.
Thanks for submitting your report.
