I end up with:

It seems like this may be somewhat intermittent. I thought I could fix it with:

diff --git a/scripts/ubuntu-jammy/02-grub.sh b/scripts/ubuntu-jammy/02-grub.sh
index 5b7af5a..e042545 100644

 shutdown -r now
 while true; do sleep 1; done

...which worked once, but the error kept happening again after that.
