[Philippe Maurisset]

Public bug reported:

Happened while "Update Manager" was running.
Last lines in update manager console:

Three lines were added every time I clicked on "Next" while update manager was asking:
"GRUB installation failed. Continue?"
And this is continuously looping again whatever drive I chose in the next screen: /dev/sda or /dev/sda4

Hopethis helps.
And hope my system will accept to start up in a few minutes...
