If you can, try removing the hard disk of your computer and then initiate the Q4OS installer with your external drive connected. Grub should now be installed your external drive.

I forgot to mention that I have only used non-Live installation images of Q4OS.

I tried and I confirm it works well. Thanks.

Re: When from live, I cannot change the place where where to put grub
I installed really a lot of distros. Q4OS from 2.4. So before writing to the forum I searched the option that the team showed above.
There is not!

No photo attached, just a path on your hard disk is displayed.
