[Bug 1848399] Re: experimental zfs install fails w/ grub error

[satmandu]

/boot/grub/grub.cfg on BOOT doesn't seem to get populated, but there was
a grub.cfg.new which I was able to copy over.

Upon boot initramfs and kernel load from BOOT, but rpool fails to mount
and initram drops to shell.

doing this at initramfs prompt lets me login:
    zpool import -R /root -N rpool
    zfs mount -a
    exit
Still get this error though:
    sudo update-grub
    Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub'
    Sourcing file `/etc/default/grub.d/init-select.cfg'
    Generating grub configuration file ...
    cannot open 'This': no such pool
