Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.99-27+deb7u2
Severity: important
Tags: d-i
Using the following installation media:
6fba6fbf3ecfe38ec7f667f5da658df2 debian-live-7.2-amd64-xfce-desktop.iso
The installation continued largely without problems until it got to the
"install grub on mbr" stage. At this point it failed. After digging a little,
I noticed that it was trying to install grub on mmcblk0 (the SD card) rather
than on sda (the internal SSD). After selecting cancel, I was able to manually
specify /dev/sda as the target and the installation completed.

Hi,
similar to the installation-reports bugs, I'm closing the grub-installer
reports
below.
These are reports for Debian 4 / 6 / 7 / 9 where grub-installer fails (for
various reasons).
There have been numerous changes/improvements on this topics in the past, and
also because of the age of the reports we should consider these problems as
being fixed (or it is even reported in the bugs that they are fixed).
They are most likely of no use anymore for recent releases.
If you know, that the issue you reported (and gets closed here) is still
existing in recent installation images, please file a new report for that with
up-to-date details!
Thank you for filing these bug reports, they have been very useful at the time
they were filed!
