Hi,
this is the frirst time i'm installing ubuntu.. The entire process was going on smoothly, with installation almost upto 99% complete. But in the final stages, i get an error message saying
Grub failed to load in hda0
I've tried it thrice, but th same prob alwys.. I have allotted a 512 MB swap partition and 5GB primary for ubuntu..
This is the error report I got..

I get the same error.
I am installing on a iMac with first partition the bootcamp booter, then the Mac OS on the second partition. I then have created 2 partitions, one 14gb and one 1gb for saw.
Same thing happens installs along fine then gets right to the end and it gives me the identical error as above.
I can get it to install fine in a parallels virtual enviroment. However it appears to be if I want it to install on a partition it gives this error
