Public bug reported:

Cannot install grub on /dev/sda.  This is a critical error, Continue
without installing grub?  You will need to install manually.  Okay, ...
Critical error can not continue....report error?

Sorry, details a little jumbled as I am reporting from memory.  Logs
should tell much more and better.  This is the third disk I have made
from the ISO download.  All are flawed and fail to boot, or install, but
at different points.  I have tried with three different drives.  This is
the second download of the ISO.  Very large difference in the size from
September to October.

One more point.  The original issue was the Upgrade/Distribution
Upgrade, which failed seemingly due to missing Perl packages.  This
completely ruined the original installation I have not been able to
recover the machine.  Personal data is backed up, so that is not an
issue.  Seems there are real problems with this upgrade.  I have two
more machines I would like to upgrade, but I am not touching them until
I get this one right.

P.S., didn't you close Ubuntu One two years ago?
