Wouldn't determining if his suggested fix works be useful in determining
the potential cause?

Personally.. I don't have this problem, I have in fact the exact
opposite problem.  On my tablet, after installing fc2t3, it refuses to
boot linux (boots windows just fine) when grub is installed on a
partition instead of the mbr.  Oh, and windows overwrites my mbr every
time I log into it (or maybe it's when I log out of it, still trying to
figure that out).  So at this point I've resorted to having a dos
partition that windows can boot, that overwrites my mbr with the one
contains grub, reboot.. launch linux.. and then I'm good to go until I
have to run windows again.

I bring it up because to me, it sounds some what related to your issue.
