Thanks a lot for the quick reply, Felix!

Looking through my packages, I saw that grub2 was not installed but was
at state rc. Strange, I thought that grub2 was installed already given
that I installed Karmic, overwriting an existing ext4 root partition
(not updating the system via the update mechanism), only keeping my home
partition from a previous Jaunty install.

Issuing a sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop did not pull in grub2 as
a dependency either. Hence I installed grub2, which pulled in grub-pc.
Rebooting and everything is fine now. So I don't know whether this is an
expected behavior. I thought that newly installing a system onto an
already existing ext4 root partition would use the new grub2.

Thanks again!
