Comment 2 for bug 1237519

I wrote e-mail to Colin Watson who maintains "grub-installer". Below are my message to Colin and his replay. He suggest to me to open a bug ticket but for unknown for me reasons I failed to do this. However I send to him a syslog file to Colin. He may already did some work.

If you're happy for this to be public (which is best - it means there's an audit trail for any change), could you file a bug and attach the full installer syslog to it, and then give me a reference to the bug number?
Otherwise, I'll at least need the syslog.

It's quite possible that GRUB itself needs some adjustment. I'd be happy to have a look given a full log.
