This is due to bug 8497 but I am keeping it separate because I would like to provide a wubi specific workaround.

EDIT: as suggested by bean123 and tinybit it is possible to modify the grub-installer line so that root is not set at all within menu.lst. This is because another menu.lst is used beforehand which will set root and then call configfile.

TEST CASE: On some systems with multiple disks, grub can set the root device incorrectly, causing a Wubi install to fail.
As suggested by bean123 and tinybit it is possible to modify the grub-installer line so that root is not set at all within menu.lst. This is because another menu.lst is used beforehand which will set root and then call configfile.
Potential regressions introduced by this patch should only be limited to Wubi installs as it is currently the only case in which grub-installer/bootdev_directory would be set. |

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14092458/grub-installer-wubi.debdiff is a patch for hardy-proposed. Please note that ubiquity needs to be uploaded afterwards in order for this to be tested.
