[Bug 882662] Re: Installer couldn't install grub on /dev/sda

[Bashar]

Just for the record, I just repeated the installation again and this
time it worked.  The only difference is that on the first time I
selected 'Try Ubuntu' then I started the harddisk installation while on
the second I chose to install on the harddisk right from the beginning.

Title:
  Installer couldn't install grub on /dev/sda

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I was installing 11.10 on a PC with 2 harddisks. The installation was
  nearly at an end when I got a message saying that it wasn't possible
  to install Grub on /dev/sda and it enabled me to chose /dev/sdb from
  a drop down menu but then that failed also.
