dan, there is no change we can make to grub to prevent this from
happening if grub-pc/install_devices is not set correctly. Unless you
can show that the installer does not set it correctly, then there is
nothing we can do.
Cian, did you ever have an issue with grub before ( possibly when you
first installed 13.10 ) and fix it by using boot-repair or otherwise?
If you run debconf-show grub-pc, you should see the grub-
pc/install_devices setting. That variable must point to your boot drive
for grub to be upgraded properly. If the 13.10 installer failed to
install grub for some reason, and you had to fix it, that would explain
how that variable was not set correctly, which set the stage for the
upgrade to fail.
** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
