Andres, note that you need to CC the original reporter if you want him
to see your message.
Alexander: could you please retest with grub2 1.98-1, currently in
testing? If it still doesn't work, then take a backup of
/usr/sbin/grub-install, apply the following patch to
/usr/sbin/grub-install, and re-run grub-install in whatever way is
appropriate for your setup; this should produce enormous amounts of
debugging information, and it would be useful to see the last screenful
or so of it.

In the meantime, this seems not too widespread, so I'm going to
downgrade this bug from release-critical to important for now, until we
get more information on what's going on.
Thanks,
