Title:
  Installation hangs on:  grub-mount /dev/sdb1 /var/lib/os-prober/mount

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “grub-installer” source package in Quantal:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Quantal desktop on hardware (with BIOS) from USB created with dd.

  Ubiquity stops any kind of activity at the end of installation, and
  the "installation successful" dialog is never displayed. Ubiquity's UI
  is like frozen but still responsive (I can switch slides in slideshow,
  open/close the embedded terminal). The last message in the progress
  bar is "Copying installation logs".

  If the machine is rebooted, it boots successfully to the newly
  installed system despite installation didn't end.

  This is reproducible.

  Log in debug mode attached.
