Follow-up Comment #15, bug #8539 (project grub):
I think it's safe to say, the grub inside chroot is broken, because multiple
projects are affected.
grml-debootstrap (a tool, which can also create virtual machine images) [1] in
file grml-debootstrap [2] uses a hack to run update-grub. Search for
"grub.cfg" within that file.

> "${MNTPOINT}"/boot/grub/grub.cfg
> sed -i "s;root=[^ ]+;root=/dev/sda1;" "${MNTPOINT}"/boot/grub/grub.cfg
Another coder failed to use grub for virtual machine images:
vmdebootstrap [3]
Kameleon [4], another virtual machine image creation tool, also uses a hack
[5] for grub.cfg.
