Sorry - my error!
I expected to much the same behaviour as in the old grub version.
Maybe RTFM would have avoid this problem. :-)

So now it works perfect and boots with grub2 from /dev/sda2 Debian stable.
This bug is to be closed.

Maybe a last question for grub2:
The boot-menu is text only.
How can i use this nice layouts?
