Think I'm seeing the same problem.  I ran

salisbury:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
Setting up grub-pc (1.99~20101210-1ubuntu2) ...

but it just hangs there indefinitely until I ^C.

Seems like it could be a critical issue, but just setting to high for
now until the scope/severity is clearer.  I definitely think this should
be investigated prior to alpha-2, else we might have many unhappy
upgraders on our hands.
