So there is an easy workaround: Once it fails, ask a shell; mount /proc: mount -t proc proc /target/proc and resume the install, grub will then complete successfully. As a side note, as long as there is no fsck.btrfs the system will not boot if root is on brtfs as the fsck pass will fail. So for btrfs it would be good to set the root fs in fstab in 'pass 0' to skip the check: # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> # / was on /dev/sda1 during installation UUID=.... / btrfs defaults 0 0 -- ============================================== Installer lsb-release: ============================================== DISTRIB_ID=Debian DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Debian GNU/Linux installer" DISTRIB_RELEASE="7.0 (wheezy) - installer build 20120206-00:09" X_INSTALLATION_MEDIUM=cdrom ============================================== Installer hardware-summary: ============================================== uname -a: Linux woppy 3.2.0-1-486 #1 Wed Feb 1 08:35:59 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux lspci -knn: 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 440FX - 82441FX PMC [Natoma] [8086:1237] (rev 02) lspci -knn: 00:01.0 ISA bridge [0601]: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II] [8086:7000] lspci -knn: 00:01.1 IDE interface [0101]: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE [8086:7111] (rev 01) lspci -knn: Kernel driver in use: ata_piix lspci -knn: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter [80ee:beef] lspci -knn: 00:03.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller [8086:100e] (rev 02) lspci -knn: Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:001e] lspci -knn: Kernel driver in use: e1000 lspci -knn: 00:04.0 System peripheral [0880]: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Guest Service [80ee:cafe] lspci -knn: 00:05.0 Multimedia audio controller [0401]: Intel Corporation 82801AA AC'97 Audio Controller [8086:2415] (rev 01) lspci -knn: Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device [8086:0000] lspci -knn: 00:06.0 USB controller [0c03]: Apple Computer Inc.

--- Begin Message ---Hi, I just found this bugreport, which is the same problem I had reported in #692168. Since the problem with installing grub is fixed (see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=12;bug=692168 ) I close this bug as well.
