[Bug 828872] [NEW] Linux Mint installer crashed when trying to install grub-pc

[Sly Marbo]

Public bug reported:

The Linux Mint USB installer crashes upon trying to install GRUB. The
logs suggest that dpkg is trying to remove grub-pc but that this is
failing. I'm not sure why it is trying to remove grub-pc since grub is
not installed and there seems to be no reason why grub-pc should be
removed.

1) Linux Mint 11 Katya
2) ubiquity 2.6.10-1mint2
    grub-pc 1.99~rc1-13ubuntu3-1mint1
3) Expected the application to install grub 2 (grub-pc)
4) The application crashed and stopped upon trying to install grub-pc
