Test booted; worked fine.  So then I entered sudo
upgrade-from-grub-legacy.  Now I am presented with a screen asking what
devices to install Grub on: /dev/sda and /dev/sda1.  I want to select
/dev/sda, but I can select neither!  Tab moves the highlight from the [ ]
in front of each choice, then to OK, but I cannot make a mark in either of
the [ ] spaces.  Note that the instruction said I would be presented with
this choice earlier in the upgrade process at step 4, but it was not
presented.

So, how to safely recover from this?

Thanks,

-Denis
