Bug description:
  After installing with ubuntu-oneiric-alternate-amd64+mac.iso (ISO from
  2011-09-21) this MacBookPro6,2 is not bootable. I used the 'guided
  resize' partitioning option to split an existing ext4 partition to
  make space. The original system was working fine and the resulting
  partition table, after the install, looks reasonable (two ext4
  partitions, two swap parititons, and a bios_grub partition).

  This would appear to be a regression. If I remember rightly, this
  worked correctly in Oneiric once before.
