Installing Ubuntu on various computers has not been a problematic experience for me in the past, so when I re-installed an old Asus eee900 which had been collecting dust for a while, I was suprised when it would not boot after the installation had completed. Figuring something had gone awry, I thought I'd boot it with the USB stick and see if that got me any further. Selecting the USB stick as primary boot option, I was surprised when the boot menu of the USB stick did not show up and the computer booted instead. Unplugging the USB stick and rebooting got me into the same issues, which led me to believe that GRUB was having some issues.
After some Googling, I found the Boot Repair tool, and after running that, booting worked as it should, without the USB stick.
