I noticed a reference to a third partition in the grub-pc output: grub-pc/install_devices: /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC_WD1001FALS-00J7B1_WD- WMATV1484210-part3
Does this mean that the upgrade is trying to install grub on a partition instead of the MBR? But, assuming that's the case, why does the old grub in the MBR stop working? (I have an older version of Kubuntu in another partition, and grub doesn't even show me that) Oh well, I hope I gave enough info to shed some light.
