Bug Description

Linux Ubuntu version 6.06 Crash

Linux Ubuntu version 6.06 Installer Crashed
Unable to install GRUB in hd0
 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS - the Dapper Drake - released in June 2006.

The Partition Resizing dialog message dissapeared too fast before I could read it, but Linux Ubuntu v6.06 instlled into the free space 51% it says.
Then the installe worked ok until it tried to install the GRUB at this point the message says: Unable to install GRUB into hd0 which is a SATA Seagate 1.5 TB drive with two partitions on it. Linux was adding ext3 and ext4 I think to the free space, then it got this Unable to install GRUB into hd0 message.

We're sorry; the installer crashed.
