[Bug 1045178] Re: grub-install failed - "/usr/share/ubiquity/plugininstall.py", line 1724, in <module>

[axion]

However the problem of writing the core.img was solved by rewriting the
mbr and partition table, the first partition then started at block 2048.
However this is not handy for systems with smaller ssd drives where
every (m)b counts. You see originally the first partition of this hdd
would begin at sector 65 and 64 sectors (32768Bytes ) is not large
enough to contain the core file of 38304Bytes
