Earlier I posted one of my results from an install attempt.  Here is 
another.  The (whole) report involves sda, sdb, and sdc, where sdb is a 
4G live booted and sdc is the target install which doesn't boot.  And 
sda is a Win7 hdd.

Boot-repair is kinda dangerous to use (but not for info) to repair, 
because if you allow it to 'do things' it can do stuff without you 
telling it where to put something.  It wrote a syslinux MBR to my sda 
which doesn't seem to interfere with sda Win booting normally.  But, I 
don't want to talk about sda, so I'll only post some bootinfo about sdc 
here.

Here's sdc which doesn't boot:

Summary section:

2048
     of the same hard drive for core.img. core.img is at this location and
     looks for (,gpt1)/boot/grub. It also embeds following components:

I don't have the skills to 'see' what is wrong or what I can fix.
