You said you were installing ubuntu to the independent drive (and one of
the messages indicates sdb), but where is it putting GRUB? You may need to
use the advanced option to place GRUB on that same drive. Sorry, I don't
know what screen the option is on during install but it used to be in the
lower right corner. Seems like it would be on the screen where you accept
all the changes before actually proceeding with the install.
