Yep. The d-i Beta 2 can install a sid or jessie system, but only until
10.1 migrates to jessie... after that the *second* boot of a newly-
installed jessie system could fail.
And in daily d-i builds with 10.1 kernel at install time, the grub-pc
installed in /target will be 2.00, so grub-probe is going to fail
for whole-disk ZFS installs.

I don't think a Breaks could work as intended - like before with
freebsd-net-tools. If newer grub-pc isn't installable in the current
suite, APT will uninstall either grub-pc or the kernel...

I think I will do this, tonight. It's the safest thing just in case
GRUB 2.02 somehow doesn't make the jessie release at all.
