Bug Description

In the newest version of VMBuilder, we run grub frm inside the chroot, rather than outside. This exposed a bug in the way we populate /boot/grub with the boot loader files: When we run cp -a /tmp/vmbuildersomething/root/usr/lib/grub/x86_64-pc/ /tmp/vmbuildersomething/root/boot/grub/, we end up with a copy of the x86_64-pc directory in boot/grub rather than the files from that directory. This makes installing grub fail.
