Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

- Install Ubuntu server 11.04 Beta1 x86_64 on a HP DL380 G7 with a RAID 
controller using a USB startup disk
- The OS install proceeds normally, but at the end of the install when it is 
time for GRUB2 to load itself onto a local disk, the installer is incorrectly 
selecting the USB startup disk's /dev location instead of a /dev on the box
- If the USB stick is removed for reboot after the install completes, the 
system does not boot to a login

Workaround:
- Plug the USB stick back into the system
- Reboot the box
- Manually move grub2 off the usb stick on to a local drive using 'sudo 
grub-install /dev/sda' or whatever your local disk's location is

This was an issue in 11.04 Alpha2, it went away in 11.04 Alpha3, but has
returned in 11.04 Beta1 on the same box and same hardware.
