Thanks to Felix Zielcke it's now working. He made .debs of the gurb2
trunk from 2008-08-09. That version still has the same problem, but it
no longer forces me into the rescue shell. When grub starts, I quickly
see two errors that fd0 and fd1 cannot be found, but then the grub menu
starts normally and I can boot my machine.

I was running the Debian Lenny version of grub2 (that's 24-5) so
somewhere between these two versions there was a change that ensures
grub2 keeps going even when it cannot find some devices.

Will that change be put into Debian Lenny as well?
