fixed indeed in Lucid Lynx 10.04 i386!
It installs the grub2 bootloader to the selected partition without killing the
current bootloader/in the 'mbr' on the first disk.

Confirmed for the kubuntu 9.10 release ISO.
I set ubiquity to install grub on /dev/sda6, as i had it already on my
MBR(regular ubuntu 9.10 install). However, the mbr was still
overwritten.
I fixed it by booting my regular ubuntu and did a "grub-install". But an
installer should do as it's told. I
just tried again with 20091015
when i ask to install the bootloader to /dev/sda6 it still puts it on
/dev/sda

i did an update with update manager. grub-pc popped up a dialog asking
which devices to keep grub up to date on, the only option was /dev/sda.
now it has installed grub2 on to the MBR so i can't chainload my other
OSs again.
how can i keep karmic's grub off the MBR?
