Upgrade to 12.10 fails with grub fatal error

After upgrading to server 12.10 grub is complaining, and thus no boot.
Boot-repair and all other solution fail because for some reason grub-install can not read /boot/grub from my lvm system disk.
I have also tried to reinstall from scratch reusing only my /home dir but the result is the same.

Surely this ain't right...

the same applies to me :-)

this is because of the new grub version, which is a bit taller and cannot find enough space. best is to keep 12.04 and not to move, or move without using the new grub version. Moving lvm is quite dangerous and time consuming, don't do that.

for next time try not to allocate the entire disk to lvm...
