First of all, I see that you don't have a "insmod lvm" even though it should be
there.  I think the attached patch should fix that (please confirm; you can
apply directly to update-grub_lib).

Then we have 05_debian_theme setting root and not setting it back to what it
should be to access /boot, and I think I know why.  Attached patch includes a
hunk to address that, too (please confirm).

Thanks
