** Description changed:

- install from Oct 14 live installer failed.
+ [Description] 
+ If a pool to import update-grub will fail because the import error message is 
used as the name of the pool. The error is similar to:
+ 
+ "cannot open 'This': no such pool" when no ZFS pools are available
+ 
+ The error can be caused by anything such as an invalid feature or a
+ corrupted device.
+ 
+ The fix catches the error, displays it, ignore the pool but import
+ others.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Create a pool on a device and export it
+ 2. Corrupt the device for example by shuffling random blocks on the device 
but not the header so it is recognized as a ZFS device
+ 3. Run update-grub
+ 
+ Expected result:
+ The pool is ignored and reported
+ 
+ Actual result:
+ Generation of the grub menu fails
+ 
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Low since currently the script aborts on error as soon as it fails to import. 
Worst case nothing imports and there is no zfs entries in the grub menu.
