Comment 70 for bug 260001

With the little understanding I have so far of Linux, according to my SysLog this is where grub-install screws up (/sda8 & /sda9 being IBM's JFS):

Why/how is this failure happening and what do I need to do, in order to finally get Jaunty somehow installed?
PS: The GRUB bootloader must be in a PBR and not the MBR, the fs must be JFS and not ext[n] or whatever.
