After the latest grub updates I got this warning again, despite having
installed grub to /dev/sda earlier.


grub-install: warning: File system `ext2' doesn't support embedding.
grub-install: warning: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and
their use is discouraged..
Installation finished. No error reported.
Generating grub configuration file ...

This reason for this error message is that "you" are trying to make a MBR grub installation on a GPT partitioned disk. To install grub on a GPT partitioned disk you need to have a partition of size mininum 1M with type BIOS boot, ef02 or bios_grub depending on used partitioning application.
