going to be able to squeeze this into 10.10, but we can deal with it for
natty.
Vincem: yes please! We should have fresh daily CD images in a few
hours.

I just tried again and noticed that during the process there was a not
running grub install /dev/sda. Since sda is the pen drive (mounted as
/cdrom) then this is writing grub to the pen drive and not the internal
