[Bug 1146963] [NEW] grub installer fails with fatal error on btrfs

[Kai Blin]

Public bug reported:

After installing 13.04 from scratch, the boot loader fails to install with a "fatal error", but does not seem to provide additional information or a command line to try.
I'm sorry to not being able to include the install log, but I used a good password for that one. :)
