That was https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806966 .

That's still notabug, I think. See my comment. Even if it wasn't, the
fault isn't anaconda's. It installs grub2 into the partition just fine.
The code for doing so did not change in any way from F16 to F17, or from
F17 Alpha to F17 Beta. It's in pyanaconda/bootloader.py if you want to
look.
