`vagrant up` doesn’t complete because of `grub-pc` installation prompt

[twhetzel]

@karlud Students are currently reporting issues [1,2] with launching Vagrant and getting an error message referring to Setting up grub-pc. I came across this post [3] that has resolved this issue for one of the students so far. Perhaps this change should be added to the Vagrantfile here in this Udacity repo?

The fix worked perfectly.

I had this same issue today and can confirm that this fix solved it.

Hi Trish,

Thanks for raising this issue. I have also emailed FSND support. Hopefully this will be addressed soon.

One slight point. You might want to edit the title of the issue, as I was a bit confused by the "grunt-pc" part.

Regards,

Steve.

The grunt-pc part is the distinguising part of the error message ansd what led me to the proposed solution. Is there some other additional text you'd suggest to make it more clear?

[SteveWooding]

Ah, I see. The forum post had the title with "grunt-pc" in it, but the actual error mentions the error to do with the "grub-pc" package.

Thanks for reporting this!

I think that should do it. I'll propagate this into the zip downloads shortly.
