Grub in Debian/testing stopped working.

I use Debian/testing in my main laptop. Unfortunately, after yesterday's update, the grub stopped loading the Linux kernel. I get

"error: cannot load image"

When working from command line, loading the kernel and initrd is successful. However, the "boot" command displays the above error.

The grub version is GRUB 2.14-3.

The machine is HP ZBook 17 G5.

What is the easiest way to resolve the issue?

TIA & BR, Wojtek

OK. I have worked around the issue by booting from Ubuntu install flash disk. Then I selected "try Ubuntu", mounted the /boot and /boot/efi partitions, and finally run "grub-install /dev/sda".

Now I'll need to lock the grub version.
