Hi,

I'd like to report another instance possibly of the same bug:

With this ISO:
c191a809ae6a6bbc17a6f2a390d167b3806fedbbf86ee02df6ce21fac93168e4  
devuan_jessie_1.0.0_amd64_CD.iso

BIOS setup (not UEFI), two partitions: boot (ext4) and root (dm-crypt)

The grub directory ended up only with grub.cfg and unicode.pf2, nothing 
else (essentially only the bare grub-rescue shell), all the modules 
needed to do anything were missing.

I tried the installation a couple of times before giving up ad copying 
the files from another installation.

It seems we have not had any more reports about grub failing to
install since jessie RC. I am closing this one then
