Title:
  package grub-common 1.98-1ubuntu13 failed to install/upgrade: package
  grub-common is already installed and configured

Status in dpkg package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I am not sure which package failed.

  The conditions were 2 hard drives installed, Win 7 Primary partition,  and win 8 in logical partitions on 1st hard drive.
  I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on second hard drive.
  So now I  have two boot loaders?  Grub gives me choice between Ubuntu and Window 7 - 8,
  Go to Win 7 - 8 and get choice of Windows 7 or  8 from windows dual boot loader.  This worked although kind of a long trip to boot up.

  I was trying to expand Windows 8 partition with KDE Partition Manager and it was about 30% complete when it crashed and then I lost ability to boot into Windows.   I tried Super Grub 2 ISO Boot disk and it can't find Windows.
  I have tried restoring windows with an ISO image but PC still can't find Windows?
  Windows partition do not have mounting points per KDE partition manager.

  Obviously I am in over my head.

  Any suggested help will be appreciated.
