** Tags added: apport-collected ubiquity-2.10.16

** Description changed:

  I upgraded 10.04 to 12.04 via the 12.04 LiveCD (in the Ubuntu installer,
  I chose to erase 10.04 before installing 12.04). Rebooting the PC gave
  no access to any system, and a screen showing "unknow symbol grub_xputs"
  error. Reinstalling GRUB in /dev/sda recovered GRUB and access to
  Ubuntu. But the Windows entry in GRUB still does not work. My current
  Boot-Info report (http://paste.ubuntu.com/1203471/) indicates that the
  Ubuntu12.04 installer installed GRUB in the PBR of the Windows
  partition, which broke the boot of Windows.
