Don't know for sure for Yves-Alexis if it is exactly the same problem, but
I experiment the same issue (with a similar grub.cfg). Some of the problem
is due to the /boot partition separate of the root one, so the hardcoded
"/boot/..." in both /boot/grub/grub.cfg and
/boot/grub/debian-theme/theme.txt can't work.
