Looks like there's a bug :-) I just tried exegnu64_devuan_20150624.iso in virtualbox, grub does not get installed.
Sorry, forgot the offending line from installer_errors.log:
/usr/sbin/grub-install: /usr/sbin/grub-install: cannot execute binary file

Thanks Nik! The log info is exactly what was needed. Thanks also Robert and kanenas.
"/bin/bash" is used in the installer's grub-install lines 1068, 1075, 1119 .. but this seems to have stopped working in recent grub versions.
Removing "/bin/bash" from those lines of /usr/bin/exegnu-installer should fix the problem. You could copy it to userspace then edit and run it from there.
It will take till tomorrow morning to test this and post a fixed ISO (upload restrictions). Till then you could either edit exegnu-installer or try the alternative "refracta-installer" in the system menu.
for a spoiled non geek it is a bit of "work in progress"... good luck,
As is TDE itself and Devuan, both still awaiting an official release for Jessie.
I won't speculate on the systemd-related bug count in current mainstream Debian "Stable" because I no longer use it. They never supported TDE anyway.
Does Devuan?
