Unfortunately, that wasn't successful. I've purged grub-common and 
grub-pc,
deleted /boot/grub, installed grub2 1.96+20080724-12, did update-grub, 
grub-install.
Still the same problem. Maybe it's got something to do with the 3ware RAID 
controller?

Cheers,

PS: this issue is not urgent for me, because it affects only one machine 
which is not
in production use anymore. Anyway, there's a work-around (editing 
grub.cfg).
