upgrade-from-grub-legacy is a Debian specific script.
And the same goes of course to dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
Report this at Debian BTS or Launchpad whatever distribution you use.
Though I know the problem, but a bug report (at the right BTS!) helps to not forget things.

When performing 'update-from-grub-legacy' or 'dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc', if not to check any devices as "grub boot devices", the configuration is, nevertheles, going on, and then after rebooting, one will not be able to run grub and hence to boot again. The grub2 generates an error "Error 15". The mistake is very crucial as it makes linux unavailable to boot, and to fix the mistake. To my mind, the easiest way to fix it is: if no devices are chosen as "grub boot devices", it should be forbidden to pass to the next step.
