After a lot of searching I have been unable to determine whether this is a bug in grub or a problem with the Amilo BIOS having some kind of affection for the Windows boot loader. Any insight would be appreciated - its such a shame to fail at the finish line after everything else on the laptop works perfectly out of the box.
The work-around above fails in Lucid Lynx (Ubuntu 10.04) because the "grub" command is missing from grub2. See the following thread for an updated work-around: ubuntuforums. org/showthread. php?p=9635712# post9635712
