Why not just ask the user if d-i should mark the partition as bootable? I'm not sure if this is easily implementable, but if it is, I think this would be user friendlier than the proposed solution. E.g something along the lines of: Your boot partition is not marked as bootable. Should it be marked as bootable? Gaudenz -- Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again.
