Bug#610601: installation-reports: hybrid squeeze iso when dd'ed to usb results in an installer which picks the wrong drive

[david b <db.pub.mail@gmail.com>]

Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal

hybrid squeeze iso when dd'ed to a usb results in an installer which installs grub to the 'wrong device'.
The installer will try to install grub2 to /dev/sda, but that is my usb drive! (and thus the wrong 'device').
