That depends on what argument you give to --target ... > Despite this, the upgrade on this machine does work. > > In short, it is very possible that you are hit by a bug in grub, so I > reassign this report. Neither of you mention which version of grub-common you have installed. However, it sounds like you're both being hit by #550704, and that Jö may be being hit by #542165 as well. Both are fixed in any version from 1.98+20100614-1 on, so please upgrade to the latest grub-common in unstable and let me know if that fixes things. I'll merge this with #550704 for the meantime.
