I am trying to dual boot Ubuntu 13.04 on my MacBook and despite selecting the same partition as the Ubuntu root partition to install the bootloader, it installs Grub to the EFI partition under /EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi. The EFI partition is being mounted by Ubuntu under /boot/efi. This whole way of installing the boatloader is causing issues with rEFIt.
Strangely I successfully did the same dual boot setup with an older MacBook and older version of Ubuntu and it did not install the bootloader on the EFI partition. It instead is under /boot/grub on the Ubuntu root partition.
How can I force Ubuntu to simply install Grub to /boot/grub rather than trying to install it as grubx64.efi on the EFI partition? Thanks!
UPDATE: Just to clarify I select /dev/sda4 to install the grub bootloader to (the same partition as my Ubuntu 13.04 root directory) and it ignores this. It installs it to the EFI partition instead (/dev/sda1). Is Ubuntu 13.04 broken with grub installation?
