Comment 18 for bug 681535

It seems that the problem is when using big partitions and GPT. If I reduce my partition sizes and use a normal dos partition style grub installs without problems. When using GPT the error occures. I use a 1MB boot_grub partition for embedding the grub bootfiles. I use the following scheme (for example):

"""
$> parted /dev/sda print
Disk /dev/sda: 3001GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
 4 1049kB 3146kB 2097kB bios_grub
 1 3146kB 2151MB 2147MB raid
 2 2152MB 2688MB 536MB raid
 3 2689MB 45.6GB 42.9GB raid
"""

Does grub-2 from ubuntu not support GPT partition style?
