Trying to get Linux Mint 18 Cinnamon (ubuntu engine based) dual booting with Windows 7 on my M.2 drive (its a samsung 960 evo)
I have had this exact same setup in the past on my SATA ssd (samsung 850 evo) with no problems ( I even made a youtube tutorial for ubuntu here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQqN-F_GW4Nlel-lfQ7wJo0J3qbSnwJwd)
Mint seems to be having trouble installing grub (images linked below)

My SOP is:
install Windows 7
Shrink volume leaving ~ 80gb for Mint
Run Mint usb live cd (made with rufus)
Install:
type=primary
use as= ex4
mount point= /
then usually its all good to go, but I get the error that grub install fails
not sure how to get this sucker working
here is my build hardware for reference: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mNqtRG
