Bug Description

1) Release 9.10 Karmic Koala
2) grub version: 0.97-29ubuntu59

3) Excuse my poor english: I expected the new "Karmic Koala" system to reboot after having been installed, getting the usually well-known grub menu which it wasn't shown.

4) The grub menu locked and an error 15 was reported.

As long as I looked into the net, I eventually found out a solution. I sorted it out swapping my two HD booting order. That worked!!!. I'm not a computer geek, but I suppose the grub information was stored in my second HD where I installed Ubuntu.
