You can run grub from the guest (assuming it's a Linux guest), by
doing in guestfish:
sh "grub-install [other parameters]"
There are some provisos which you can read about here:

We also provide a grub-install command which runs t

This leaves the swap partition unaligned :-(

Perhaps you can help. I'm at the point of
screaming frustration.
First, I had to search for a machine on which
I could install guestfish and virt-rescue. None
of the production machines were safe for this

Here's how far I've progressed this evening:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/recover2.my.net.raw count=20M
$ losetup /dev/loop0 recover2.my.net.raw
$ cfdisk /dev/loop0
create a 9G bootable linux partition and a 1G swap
$ kpartx -a -v /dev/loop0
$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/mapper/loop0p1 -m 0.01 -L "RecoverTest
This may not be the best forum to ask, but it does
seem to be one where it is as likely as anywhere
