I have just installed Buster on a spare set of partitions using
debootstrap, as documented in:
Appendix D.3 of the Installation Guide.
When I got to configuring networking, I just copied
/etc/networking/interfaces, /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, and
/etc/resolv.conf from my Stretch

manages to download grubx64.efi.

Rather than quote my original post, I'll restate the underlying problem.
