Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

After installation is completed, I am asked if I want to install grub on the
master boot record. When I choose not to, I am given an explanation about the
naming of devices for Grub and I am prompted to enter the device which I want
to install Grub on. The explanation says that for installing Grub on the first
extended partition on the third hard disk I can enter (hd2,4).

In my particular case I wanted to install Grub on the first extended partition
on the first hard disk and I entered (hd0,4). This results in an error. I try
again and this time I enter (hd0,5) and this works.
