[Bug 997151] [NEW] install fails: can't find grub-xpats

Install from the DVD of ubuntu 12.04

Have 4 HDDs in a fairly vanilla desktop machine that worked perfectly
fine with Lucid Lynx.

/dev/sda -- root, /var, /usr, swap, /home
/dev/sdb,c,d: a 2-TB Raid array.  This was not configured at install time.

Install went fine.  I'm not happy that it downloaded from the "nearest"
mirror however and I didn't have a chance to say otherwise (except
perhaps to pull the plug on the internet connection).  My issue here is
that I live in China and don't trust the servers here.

In any case, after all the software was installed andupdated, the DVD
medium was ejected and the machine rebooted.  It got to the grub loader
and then had the fatal error that grub-xpats could not be found.

I am now reinstalling the system using the "alternate" CD so I can't
reproduce or provide more details on error message.  Sorry!
