You have been subscribed to a public bug:

In Installing Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop, my system has a separate boot
partition /boot on the same drive.   When installing Ubuntu 12.04, Grub2
does not seem to account for that and when the installation is finished
and you reboot looking to get into Ubuntu 12.04 desktop, grub2 generates
an error 15 and halts.

What I have tried:

(I have tried this on two separate machines so I know it is machine
independent)

Please note:

(Grub1 was installed previously on these machines but another machine
had grub1 AND no /boot partition and it worked so I Know it has nothing
to do with Grub1)

(As stated already, both machines had a separate /boot partition so I
can reproduce the error)

(as stated:)

I tried the install on a third machine with just a / partition and it
worked perfectly so I know having grub1 already installed does not
affect this situation.
