Bug Description
I was trying install Kubuntu on my PC, but unfortunately I can't, because of BUG I think.
I downloaded Kubuntu Dapper for desktops. I have Celeron 1,7GHz, Seagate Barrracuda IV 40Gb, 512 RAM, LiteON 52x,24x,52x and old graphic card... S3 Savage.
I was installing Kubuntu on /dev/hda1 with XFS file system. After files had installed on hard drive, and before GRUB instalation I had error message, and installation was interrupted.
I can run system on disk (using some tricks), but can't install grub in MBR.

Thanks for your report. Due to some reliability problems with GRUB and XFS, you need to use a non-XFS root filesystem or create a non-XFS /boot filesystem. Bug 47848 is filed to note that the partitioner should warn you about this up-front.
