</I>
To install on a disk shared with windows, for example. I did that on my
laptop and also missed the option, but also found it in summary page
(grub is in sda3, Win7 BCD on /dev/sda, added linux grub with EasyBCD).

If this option is not clearly visible, you can easily wipe windows boot
menu and many users will be disappointed.
