Same error here.
Updated from 13.10 to 14.04 several machines with 2x2Tb HD's without
problem. Found the problem with one machine with 2x3Tb HD's.
Machines had only one OS: ubuntu 13.10
Working machines has partition table type "msdos", the failed one has
partition table type "gpt" as per parted -l output.
Tried unsuccessful options to fix the error:
1) dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
2) grub-install /dev/sda && grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
3) reinstall grub:
apt-get purge -y grub grub-pc grub-common
rm /etc/grub.d /etc/default/grub* /boot/grub -fr
apt-get install -y grub-common grub-pc
