Hello, Nixers!

Recently I have tried to use Grub bootloader, but it shows an error message:

updating GRUB 2 menu...
/nix/store/a457ywa1haa0sgr9g7a1pgldrg3s798d-coreutils-8.24/bin/cp:

/nix/store/zldbbngl0f8g5iv4rslygxwp0dbg1624-install-grub.pl:
installation of GRUB on /dev/sda failed
warning: error(s) occured while switching to the new configuration

There is some reason I can't install Grub on my machine?
