Ok, I now found time to try to install Debian again :-) It's a more
recent daily image now and the same errors occur: "command 'linux' not
found" and s/linux/initrd/ ... and a whole list of errors (that I can
see only for some milliseconds) when GRUB start.
Now I tried on the command line and found out what the issue is:

grub> insmod linux
error: file `/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/x86_64-efi/linux.mod' not found.

Ha! The "x86_64-efi/" part is doubled! So an

grub> insmod /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/NAME.mod

for all the needed stuff and dependencies works.

Anyone able and willing to fix this path issue? :-)

Best,
  Stephan
