Using the yad installer.. (not sure if same is on the other installers)
I suggest a dialogue box be added saying that grub is installing while that happens
During the installation everything has a something visual (statusbar or dialogue box) while it is happening except for the grub install. Now there is a gap while grub installs that is noticeable and a novice may not be patient enough for it to end and exit
The new dialogue box could simply say ' Installing Grub ' and then on to the passwords
Thanks

In the beginning...
I used the installer from a terminal to see any glaring issues.. that is the only time you really notice that there is a 17 second or so lag whilst grub installs.
Some users have asked for a terminal based installer option which I will give them with a different launcher.. they enjoy seeing the entire process
Thanks for listening to the suggestion, it really is not needed IMO

Since version 9.0.9, the installer starts from a terminal if you select it from the menu. And the latest versions no longer use gksu to take the password. So you should be able to see the message "Setting up grub bootloader.. Please wait.." But I went ahead and added a progress window. Only took a minute.
