Exactly my point... When installing Ubuntu Gnome, I'm selecting /sdb/ as
the HDD to install to. But when installer runs dpkg grub-installer, it
fails with a fatal error.
The only way I could get the Ubuntu Gnome installer past this error was
to unplug the drive which was getting defined as /sda/.
The default boot drive is /dev/sda, so if you intend to boot your
machine from another drive, you need to change the drive grub is
installed to.
