Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ubiquity

I'm trying to install 6.10 off live CD onto a system with both a SATA
and IDE drive.  SATA is set as the first drive in BIOS.  However, the
installer defaulted to (hd0) for the GRUB installation location instead
of what I expected to be (sd0).  I manually changed the install location
to (sd0).  Most of the system installed correctly it seems, but when the
installer progress dialog indicated:

   Running "grub -install (sd0)"...

the install crashed.  syslog and partman are attached as one file.
Crash report dialog provided this:
