Take a look at /etc/kernel-img.conf and make sure that the postinst_hook
and the postrm_hook give the full path to the update-grub script, i.e.
these two lines should look like this:

postinst_hook = /usr/sbin/update-grub
postrm_hook   = /usr/sbin/update-grub

Also try to run "update-grub" as root; are there any error messages?
