Title:
  bootloader "grub" installer not working on Acer Revo

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing Ubuntu from scratch on Acer Revo Aspire - Linpus was original OS.
  It gets to the end but says it can't install the grub installer boot program in the specified location.
  I tried the alternate location given but that didn't work either.
