[Bug 102070] GRUB "Error 15" after edgy->feisty upgrade of Kubuntu

[mathew]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kubuntu-live

IBM ThinkPad T42p. Previously running Kubunty Edgy Eft.

One IDE hard drive, partitions are:
/ on JFS (reformatted during install)
/home on JFS (not reformatted)
swap

Booted live CD, ran installer. Told it to re-use the existing partitions
as specified above. Answered the usual questions. Everything seemed to
work fine, no error dialogs displayed. System ejected CD and shut down.

On boot, GRUB displays:

Grub Loading stage1.5.
GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 15

Booting the install CD and examining the root partition, I see that
/initrd is empty, and /boot has no GRUB configuration files.

It sounds a bit like Bug #14135, except that Edgy's installer works on
the same machine. Will try a daily Kubuntu CD ISO and report back.

** Affects: kubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
