If running grub-install again is definitely required for a workable boot configuration, then this might be the point where it fails. I never saw any debconf prompt, and thus didn't recognize the need to run grub-install. I have had configured debconf to never ask me any questions with a priority less than medium. But even after setting it to the lowest possible option i was not shown any prompt asking to run grub-install. What i did now was to manually run grub-install on the drive, in order to make sure that grub is definitely updated. And this finally resulted in a properly bootable system. Thanks for your help!
