I've just tried again. I reproduce the same exact misbehavior I originally reported, with the same exact output/errors. After updating the image with 'sbuild-qemu-update', I can no longer use 'sbuild-qemu-boot'. I don't know whether this is due to the image format conversion to QEMU QCOW Image (v3), or to any other modification introduced by 'sbuild-qemu-update', but I still experience the bug. > > Note that from experience, it is quite possible that sbuild-qemu-update > just happened to update in a moment where a GRUB toolchain update within > the VM encountered an issue.

[...] Was the original image in QCOW format?!? Just after creating the image with 'mmdebstrap-autopkgtest-build-qemu', before updating it: $ file unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 1 : ID=0xee, start-CHS (0x0,0,2), end-CHS (0x3ff,255,63), startsector 1, 52690977 sectors, extended partition table (last) After updating the image with 'sbuild-qemu-update': $ file unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img unstable-autopkgtest-amd64.img: QEMU QCOW Image (v3), 26977780736 bytes (v3), 26977780736 bytes Please clarify.
