Adding my voice to the grub2 boot issues after installing Lucid.

1. As above, the grub2 install script automatically overwrote the boot sector of sda1 (XP) on install. Had to use Testdisk to restore the backup.

2. It also failed to detect the presence of Puppy in /dev/sda8 by itself. However, it did parse a previous menu.lst on /dev/sda6 which contained a hand crafted entry correctly pointing to Puppy on /dev/sda8, but then reassigned it to /dev/sda6.
