I think it is Stage 2 which has version 0.94. May be a bug somewhere
but
backup.bin
mbr_backup.bin: x86 boot sector; GRand Unified Bootloader, stage1 version
0x3, stage2 address 0x2000, stage2 segment 0x200, GRUB version 0.94;
partition 1: ID=0x27, starthead 1, startsector 63, 25173792 sectors;
partition 2: ID=0x7, starthead 254, startsector 25173855, 208845 sectors;
partition
file mbr_backup.bin
mbr_backup.bin: x86 boot sector; GRand Unified Bootloader, stage1 version
0x3, stage2 address 0x2000, stage2 segment 0x200, GRUB version 0.94;
partition 1: ID=0x27, starthead 1, startsector 63, 25173792 sectors;
partition 2: ID=0x7, starthead 254, startsector 25173855, 2088

"grub-install -v" will tell the installed version.
Anyway... IIRC, the version is printed at the top of the boot menu.

Is there a way to find out what version of grub is installed in the MBR

What's the easiest way for a shell script to tell if grub version 1
is installed? It is important to distinguish grub version 1 from
