I already tried. But launching the GRUB image grub-mkimage generated
(b.t.w. using the exact command grub-install uses) dropped me to rescue
mode. The image grub-mkimage generated isn't exactly equal to the image
generated by grub-install. A check with cmp suggested the only
differences are a few bytes that grub-setup seems to have touched.
