hrm, no, this doesn't work.  i get:

>> 0 attica:/usr/sbin# grub-install /dev/hda
>> /usr/sbin/grub-install: 229: make_system_path_relative_to_its_root: not found
>> 1 attica:/usr/sbin# 

can i help debug it further somehow?  maybe other files need syncing?

(to be clear: i applied your patch directly to /usr/sbin/grub-install
with 1.98+20100804-4 installed. i did *not* rebuild the package)

	--dkg
