I can confirm the problem, but the solution proposed in #10 does *not*
work for me.

$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
# devices that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system>     <mount point>    <type>     <options>       
<dump>    <pass>
proc                /proc    proc    nodev,noexec,nosuid    0    0
/dev/mapper/host-root        /    ext4    errors=remount-ro    0    1
/dev/sda1            /boot    ext2    defaults        0    2
/dev/mapper/host-swap_1    none    swap    sw            0    0

I set IMAGES="/var/lib/boot/images"

Without the patch, update-grub(2) passes without errors, but the
bootloader fails to find memdisk.
With the patch, update-grub2 errs with:

/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/memdisk'.

MEMDISK is set to /memdisk ...

I originally filed this downstream at
