[IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO BOOT MANUALLY IN UBUNTU see #145]

WORKAROUND - 1 (copy /boot to /host/boot - with this you putting /boot out of root.disk at boot time)
(1) sudo update-grub
(2) sudo cp -r /boot /host
(3) nano /host/boot/grub/grub.cfg
(and change all the lines with /boot/... (hd0,1)/boot/... [adapt to your case (h0,1) should be (hd0,2) in many cases, is the drive and partition where the ubuntu/disks/root.disk is (see #145)]
(4) Ctrl X then Y
(5) sudo cp -r /host/boot /host/ubuntu/install
(6) Then restart the system and you will be able to boot "as usual" (with the new kernels, ... )
(7) Each time the system updates kernels or grub give a try
