Title:
  10.4 beta2 installer - rescue mode: reinstallation of GRUB calls
  unknown grub-install instead of grub-installer

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: debian-installer

  system: 10.4 beta 2

  The log said:
  DEBUG: retrieving grub-installer 1.49ubuntu10
  grub-installer: chroot: cannot execute grub-install: No such file...

  Reinstallation of grub failed!

  After swichting to a shell I found that 
  /usr/bin/grub-install   does NOT exist but 
  /usr/bin/grub-installer  does!

  A workaround was a symbolic link but changing the system call
  accordingly in the installer will be the proper solution.
