As per https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/45989/comments/3 bugs which result in an unbootable system should be of high importance. Adjusting accordingly. |

Are you still experiencing this with Hardy? I had it on Dapper and Edgy, but not anymore. |

Binary package hint: grub
Install fails due to the fact that IDE drives are not set in the boot order (SATA drive is), but ubuntu installer installs to IDE0,0.
Obviously there are 2 drives, sda, and hda. sda is set to boot from in the bios, but in drive order, hda is first so grub chooses it.
Asus motherboards with ability in bios to change drive boot order and have both ide, and sata drives are problematic.
I don't know about "expert" mode, but this problem has caused me several headaches. |
These days Ubiquity provides a selection for which drive to install grub to. This is vital for people whose systems do not boot from the first disk that the kernel detects. The same ability needs added to the alternate installer. |
