This bug was fixed in the package grub-installer - 1.42ubuntu1
---------------
grub-installer (1.42ubuntu1) karmic; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Show the grub menu and raise the menu timeout if other operating
systems are installed (only for GRUB Legacy right now).
- Ask grub-installer/only_debian at medium priority.
- Remove splash boot parameter unless debian-installer/framebuffer=true.
- If / or /boot are on a removable device, install GRUB there by
default.
- Only mount /target/proc if it isn't already mounted.
- Support setting OVERRIDE_UNSUPPORTED_OS in the environment to force
grub-installer to use its default MBR selection method despite there
being unsupported operating systems on the disk.
- Unless grub-installer/make_active is preseeded to false, mark the
partition to which GRUB is being installed as bootable, or failing
that the first available primary partition on the disk to which GRUB
is being installed.
- Support grub-installer/bootdev_directory preseeding to make use of the
relative path feature of grub4dos, so that we can point grub4dos at
part of a disk for Wubi. Setting this disables normal grub
installation, but still generates a device.map; it also hides the
menu.
- Handle cases where /boot is bind-mounted.
- Add support for writing an GRUB Legacy MBR on each disk in an
mdadm-managed RAID providing /boot. (GRUB 2 can handle this already.)
- Properly make use of output from os-prober to configure the booting of
other operating systems on dmraid arrays. Attempt to guess where in
the device map the array belongs, by substituting the first drive in
the dmraid array for the dmraid array device node itself, and removing
any reference to other member disks of the array.
- Set a sensible default boot device when /cdrom is not iso9660, as this
is probably a USB install and (hd0) does not make sense when
installing from a removable disk.
- Go back to using update-grub -y for GRUB Legacy for now; our grub
package is a bit old and still requires this.
- Default to grub2 for GPT systems.
- Allow grub/grub2 choice for ext4, though still default to grub2.
* Restrict code to generate device.map for loop installations to GRUB
Legacy (LP: #421873).
* Fix said code to run grub chrooted into /target.

* Check that /etc/kernel-img.conf exists before running sed over it.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Don't create /etc/grub.d/30_otheros if os-prober is already installed
for grub2 to use (LP: #419044).
* Pass user parameters to grub2 (closes: #470894).
* Add myself to Uploaders.

[ Aurelien Jarno ]
* Use grub-pc on UFS root filesystem, and don't display the not-mature
debconf warning in that case.
* Don't try to update /target/etc/mtab if it is already a symlink.
