I've pushed this to a branch that will have to be merged for Debian;
then we'll merge and upload there; once that's done it will be simple to
sync to Ubuntu. In other words, this should be fixed soonish.

Title:
  The "--disk-module=MODULE" option of "grub-install" works wrong in
  Grub 2.02~beta2-9

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in grub2 package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  My OS is ubuntu14.04 LTS.
  And the command "grub-install -V" shows that the grub version is  Grub 2.02~beta2-9.

  Since I have two disk on my laptop, and one of them is not bootable, I
  have to use nativedisk mode.

  But the "--disk-module=MODULE"  option of grub-install can not work normaly.
  Command like:
  sudo grub-install --disk-module=native /dev/sda

  returns me the following message:
  "
   --disk-module: (PROGRAM ERROR) Option should have been recognized!?
  Try 'grub-install --help' or 'grub-install --usage' for more information.
  "

  What's the meaning of "should have been recognized", not unrecognized?

  Grub(-install)2.00 in ubuntu13.10 don't have this bug. Everything goes
  well.

  The following attachment is the output of `sudo fdisk -l`. /dev/sda is
  SSD, /dev/sdb is HDD and because of the bios problem, it's not
  bootable.
