You'll need to use a newer installation image.  grub-installer and grub2
were changed in step, but unfortunately older installation images
sometimes still install grub2 from the network and get out of sync.
Anything from 5 Feb or so onward should be fine.

grub-installer (1.49ubuntu4) lucid; urgency=low

  * Preseed grub-pc/install_devices_empty while installing grub-pc, since we
    deliberately defer calling grub-install until a later point.  Thanks to
    Dustin Kirkland for debugging assistance.

grub-installer (1.49ubuntu3) lucid; urgency=low

  * Add $partition_offset to $bootpart when deciding which partition to make
    active based on GRUB-style device names (found while testing fix for LP
    #185878).
  * Use grub-probe to convert device names rather than relying on
    device.map.
  * Only add removable devices to device.map if using GRUB Legacy.
  * Use an appropriate OS device name rather than (hd0) if possible.
  * When installing from a non-CD medium, we only need to reset the default
    boot device if we would otherwise end up installing GRUB to the
    installation medium.
  * Convert device names to by-id form before preseeding
    grub-pc/install_devices.
