On second thought, using:
find --set-root --relative=/ubuntu/disks
/ubuntu/disks/boot/grub/menu.lst
is more generic and even if setting the root is superfluous in the case
of Wubi the setup above might be useful where the grub menu is used
directly without going through the embedded menu.lst. The disadvantage
is that using find --relative requires upgrading the grub package (which
will probably be required anyway because of other patches).

A variation of the above involves looking for a UUID file as opposed to
looking for menu.lst as suggested by Colin.
