What? You mean it isn't obvious you need to use
the --force option? :-).
Actually, I did try the force option but you cannot force an update for
something that does not exist i.e. grub2-tools, so you must first
install it, but like I said it said the package did not exist
But actually, inside a virtual machine I'd expect
you'd want grub2-install /dev/vda (not vda1)
unless you've setup some kind of multi-boot
virtual machine.
So, that could have been the cause of that message about blocklist.
I would have never guessed that message actually meant 'please use
/dev/vda instead of /dev/vda1'.
Thinking about this, grub2 should have automatically detected this
condition because /boot was mounted on /dev/vda1 and no other drives
exist, anyhow, well spotted.
Thanks.
