Public bug reported: Installing from the "Install Ubuntu Studio 16.04 icon on the live system desktop. Installer reported that installation of grub had failed. I then clicked on the selection to skip installation of grub bootloader. Installer then crashed. I saw this on an earlier load (20160324)
Install DVD is 16.04 amd64 RC marked 20160419 ububtu-studio 4.4.0-21-lowlatency #37-Ubunt SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 18 20:20:26 UTC 2016 grub package 0.97-29ubuntu68 I can tolerate the failure to install grub - manual install is easy workaround. However, the installer crash is not a very graceful way to handle the problem.
