Comment 7 for bug 181812

I've encountered this problem with the released version of Ubuntu 8.04.

Specifically the line that appears as the error is: "grub-installer: The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly."

This appears in both of the attached syslog files. Also the error appears even why trying to install grub manually.

I have attempted to install this both to the MBR and to the first partition, using the full install and also running grub separately post failed install. Note that in my case the hard drive involved is hd2 and that Windows resides on hd0.
