Bug Description
Binary package hint: debian-installer
Ubuntu 10.10, Alternate disc
1. Windows 7 only, Windows bootloader.
2. I installed ubuntu 10.10 including luks and lvm and the grub setup worked fine.
3. I had to install it again, now it said something like "Grub setup failed, could not install it to MBR." I made a reboot, executed the alternate setup again and the error reappeared.
So it works when only the Windows 7 bootloader is on the system, but not with grub already on it.
