Brian, The problem has been solved however there may be some action required. First, in spite of the message I was able to boot into the installation and everything seemed to be working including Grub2.
Still, I decided to repeat the installation as you suggested and then no errors or messages occurred anymore. So the question is whether this error message should appear? I understand that that always something can go wrong downloading updates but should this lead to such a confusing message?
