Which exact error message?  If it's:

  /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only
be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are
UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged.

... then you'll get that any time you try to install GRUB to a partition
rather than the MBR, unless the filesystem on that partition reserves
space for boot loader code (basically, btrfs).  The warning doesn't
indicate a problem that would prevent your system booting next time
round, but rather a general unreliability of this setup against things
like aggressive fsck implementations.

It's only related to this bug if you're also getting "error: non-sector-
aligned data is found in the core file".
