To workaround the problem I have temporarirly linked /bin/true to /usr/sbin/update-grub: # sudo mount --bind /bin/true /usr/sbin/update-grub # sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (installation of kexec-tools completed) Then grub config update and installation: # sudo umount /usr/sbin/update-grub # sudo update-grub # sudo grub-install /dev/sda After that everything went fine and 12.04 boots properly.
