Removing grub is exactly what should happen, you'll find on the next
update that this issue is now fixed for you.

It looks like you were affected by one of the bugs in the beta cycle
that forced removal of grub-pc in favor of grub - since this bug is
fixed, I'm closing this report.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: grub

Update manager was performing an update. It could not find /boot/grub/menu.lst. It asked me if I wanted to generate one and gave me a choice "y/N". I chose no by default. This is the error I got.

Questions.

Where is the grub/menu.lst file?
Where is the xorg.conf file?
