Then you're almost certainly running into #550704, which has bitten a
lot of people in testing.  Unfortunately other problems have made it
difficult to get a version of grub2 that fixes this into testing in a
timely manner.  In the meantime, I suggest upgrading to grub-common and
grub-pc from unstable.

If you want more detailed background, see my blog:
