I had some time to look at this issue today. Since grub was recently updated i tried using the old recipes from pyro. This fixed booting without efi. Then i had a look at meta/recipes-core/initrdscripts/files/init-install.sh
My suspicion was, that this line
grub_version=$(grub-install -v|sed 's/.* \([0-9]\).*/\1/')
turns out to be zero with grub-202, and thereby messes the whole thing up
Changing to:
grub_version=202
fixed my legacy boot problem.

"/usr/share/locale" could not be found. After reboot i'm getting dropped to grub-shell, because the kernel could not be loaded.
