[Bug 985322] Re: distribution upgrade 11.10 to 12.04 - grub fails to install

The package is failing to install due to a configuration error in your
/etc/default/grub file which is attached to this bug report.  You seem
to be using unicode quotes instead of ascii quotes in the following
line:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=”quiet splash”

you want to have

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"

Good Luck!
