Hey there!

I've ran some tests, all successful (one caveat below though). But first, here's the diff of the manifest:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/PXn9Jmmxvv/

">" shows the new packages added (meaning, not in the base image but in the minimized+unminimize image) - which is good. We're not dropping anything we shouldn't be. Great.

Now, upon running unminimize, I saw that reinstallation of grub-pc was causing some problems. This is just on Noble (not Jammy, not Mantic). And this is the first time I've seen this.

8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<

Configuring grub-pc
-------------------

The grub-pc package is being upgraded. This menu allows you to select which devices you'd like grub-install to be automatically run for, if any.

Running grub-install automatically is recommended in most situations, to prevent the installed GRUB core image from getting
out of sync with GRUB modules or grub.cfg.

If you're unsure which drive is designated as boot drive by your BIOS, it is often a good idea to install GRUB to all of
them.

Note: it is possible to install GRUB to partition boot records as well, and some appropriate partitions are offered here.
However, this forces GRUB to use the blocklist mechanism, which makes it less reliable, and therefore is not recommended.

  1. /dev/sda (10737 MB; QEMU_HARDDISK)  2. - /dev/sda1 (9662 MB; /)  3. - /dev/sda16 (957 MB; /boot)

(Enter the items or ranges you want to select, separated by spaces.)

GRUB install devices: 

8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<--8<


...and this fails the unminimize run but I can confirm that this has nothing to do with unminimize itself.

If on a fresh VM, I run `apt install --reinstall grub-pc`, I can replicate this. Once I configure this, the unminimize run is smooth. This is not seen in Mantic or Jammy, so I am guessing something changed in Noble.
