Title:
  lucid install w/ downloaded iso fails at grub

Status in Wubi:
  Invalid
Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I downloaded the ubuntu Lucid Beta iso from the website, and extracted
  wubi.exe from the iso and put it in the same folder as the ISO. I ran
  wubi with --skipmd5check and --force32bit and it created the disks
  properly, the installation completed as expected.

  After reboot, I selected the "Ubuntu" menu from the bootloader and it
  dropped me to a grub2 shell. I tried loading from loop0 but it was
  unable to detect the partition type (I assumed that the disk was
  mounted in a loopback mode).

  Anyways, ubuntu/disks has two correct images, but the grub folder is
  empty.

  The log of the installer is here: http://pastebin.com/cKJjNC2q
