I woul like to be more precise. In fact the problem is that the standard install does not ask where to install the Grub and goes directly to the first hard disk. It is sort of downgrading from 8.04.1 which installs on a secondary disk properly. I installed the 8.04.1 on USB disk, was prompted during the installation to decide where to put the grub, and was able to boot from both the internal drive and USB. The 8.10 installer went through the installation without prompting and left me with shaky boot (I need the USB disk plugged to boot from the internal disk). I do not see any technical problem for 8.10 guys. Could take the relevant part from 8.04.1 install, it's merely the question of decision.
-- Grub installs to wrong drive's MBR in default install.
