grub-install comes before grub-mkconfig. And /etc/default/grub needs to be written before grub-mkconfig is called.

But all of those details can be ignored if the existing code for "install bootloader" is used for  "do not install bootloader", while the later merely causes option --grub-setup=/bin/true to be inserted into the grub-install command. That's more robust as everyone's exercising the same code.
