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.
