Related problem, grub failed to install for me several times, though the root was /dev/sdc5. Apparently the only valid place for grub would have been /dev/sdc5 yet the installer didn't display any warnings. After rebooting the above partition had no boot loader and an otherwise complete install. I had to reinstall Kubuntu (9.10) about 8 times and finally place grub on /dev/sdb to get it to boot.
