Adrian,
How are we going to solve the grub installation problem within
debian-installer then?

Another thing that I now remember is that on one ppc64 machine
after upgrading grub-ieee1275, I had to do a fsck.hfs, as it somehow
screw up the bootstrap partition. My feeling is that the problem
resides
in grub-ieee1275, which got an upgrade on November 9 (changelog grub2)
and was built by buildd in November 10.
All that grub-install does is copying files into the directory
/boot/grub,
it makes zero modifications to the filesystem itself or the block
device.
It doesn't even modify the NVRAM because it's called with "--no-nvram"
[1].
The HFS filesystem corruption is most likely a result of the outdated
hfsprogs
package which has some issues on big-endian systems as I discovered
while working
on the hfsprogs source code. This will be resolved once I finally
update that
package.
