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 ...
