Note: I remember the first installation of Grub into the internal
HD MBR while installing Debian 6 on Firewire: Where was no
warning, but on reboot the Laptop was dead on the rescue prompt of
Grub (which could do only 'ls' and nothing else). "error: device
not found" or so. and even the original Windows on intern could
not be started.
Maybe there can be added a check&warning at install time if Grub
cannot load its own modules (which obviously remained on the
Firewire parititition.)
