First, this whole question is more suited for the MX forum, as they do this kind of stuff a lot.

Second it’s easy enough to ‘solve’ both of the above, although it will take 4 to 8 man hours (calendar hours would depend on how much ‘stuff’ you have to tarball). Here’s references:

Thank you Michael,

Must have been something wrong in the grub install. In the end, I solved it by upgrading MX 21 to MX 23, which reinstalled grub. After that, grub-install and update-grub worked as expected. I lost Plymouth on the way and now have a standard Debian boot, which is good.
