Bug Description
The Linux Mint USB installer crashes upon trying to install GRUB. The logs suggest that dpkg is trying to remove grub-pc but that this is failing. I'm not sure why it is trying to remove grub-pc since grub is not installed and there seems to be no reason why grub-pc should be removed.
1) Linux Mint 11 Katya
2) ubiquity 2.6.10-1mint2
grub-pc 1.99~rc1-
3) Expected the application to install grub 2 (grub-pc)
4) The application crashed and stopped upon trying to install grub-pc
