Here's a short explanation:
- Checkout d-i source.
- Apply my patch and build grub-installer udeb.
- Put the udeb in installer/build/localudebs, and add it to the cd with:
echo grub-installer > installer/build/pkg-lists/local
- Build a netboot image as normal.
- Boot the resulting image in expert mode, and when queried about using grub2
answer Yes.
- Check wether it boots (and have a rescue disk at hand!)
