I wouldn't know where the grub file lives in the boot cd, i have never 
looked.  

However, I can suggest you try to install via pxeboot/net install 
method. 

Setup a pxe boot server (check howtoforge.com for a very nice tutorial).  
After you are done, find this file: pxelinux.cfg/default and add 
console=ttyS2,115200n8 -- to the default boot stanza such that it looks 
like this:

LABEL install
        kernel ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
        append vga=normal initrd=ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz 
ramdisk_size=14332 root=/dev/rd/0 rw  console=ttyS2,115200n8 --

Now when you boot your client machine, it will find the pxe server, 
start booting, and will throw everything to the console, provided that 
your console is ttyS2.

That was all basically from memory, i hope i didn't miss anything :)
