Hi JFMurphy,

Examining your DpkgTerminalLog.txt file I notice the following error:

Testing for an existing GRUB menu.lst file ... found: /boot/grub/menu.lst
Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ...
expr: non-numeric argument
User postinst hook script [/sbin/update-grub] exited with value 2

This actually appears to be a duplicate of bug 193439 so I am marking it as such. Please continue to track this issue at that report. Thanks.
