Looking at grub2 1.99~rc1 it seems there is no warning/error message
about installing or upgrading it on a reiserfs partition mounted without
notail. Other warnings or error messages are out of scope here.

IMHO grub's preinst should display an error message and stop, since
the missing notail might result in an unbootable system.
