[Bug 1087989] [NEW] persistant err in grub during first boot up

[mysteryonion]

Public bug reported:

This error first started to show up during the upgrade to 12.10 and
could not be corrected using other method that are none install disk
based.   The fix method did not work either and so finally the use of
the install disk was employed.  It eventually gave the fatal error for
grub.    I am forced to wipe the drive as it seems this was a bad
upgrade that caused much damage.  Backed up my data and so hope this
clean install will solve it.  Hope the error dump is of use.
