[Bug 1430389] Re: intaller crashed when running update grub on my USB HDD

[Phillip Susi]

Looks like ubiquity is trying to run things in parallel that need to be
serialized:

Mar 10 14:53:23 kubuntu ubiquity: apt-install or in-target is already running, so you cannot run either of
Mar 10 14:53:23 kubuntu ubiquity: them again until the other instance finishes. You may be able to use
Mar 10 14:53:23 kubuntu ubiquity: 'chroot /target ...' instead.
Mar 10 14:53:23 kubuntu in-target: Unexpected error; command not executed: 'update-grub'
