This message is generated by grub-installer, i.e. the component of 
debian-installer
which installs GRUB during installation. The relevant code part can found here 
[1],
the relevant message text here [2].

I haven't analyzed the code in detail yet so I'm not sure why it triggers in 
your
case. I will perform a test installation inside a SPARC T5 LDOM to find out.
