Bug#721627: debian-installer: cannot install bootloader when multiple disks are present

[Michal Suchanek <michal.suchanek@ruk.cuni.cz>]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

Hello,

I am installing Debian Wheezy from a mini iso on an USB thumb drive
(sda) to internal SATA harddisk (sdd). sdb and sdc are possibly
non-existent floppies or something.

When I get to installing grub the installer insists on installing to sda
which

 - is bogus because I need the bootloader on sdd which has the system on
   it
 - fails because sda does not have a PC partition table

Please make Debian installeble from USB thumb drive.

Thanks
