Hi Colin, I have a customer experiencing the same issue although it is not during the installation. It happens when the customer tries to run aptitude upgrade in lucid. I tested the ppa and according to the customer it works, grub2 installed with no errors.
Here there is some info: -------- lsb_release -d -------- Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS -------- uname -a -------- Linux xxxxxx 2.6.32-27-server #49-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 2 02:05:21 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux Errors on aptitude upgrade. ====== Log started: 2011-04-07 16:34:18 Setting up linux-image-2.6.32-29-server (2.6.32-29.58) ...
