You installed sicherboot, and did not create a /etc/kernel/cmdline with your kernel command line, hence it fails (in the first script). The second one it probably should not fail, but then, if you had created /etc/kernel/cmdline the first would not have failed either.

This bug was fixed in the package sicherboot - 0.1.3

---------------
sicherboot (0.1.3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debian: Enhances initramfs-tools, not initramfs-tool (Closes: #840772)
  * Ignore failure to remove kernel/loader entry (LP: #1696054)

This was actually happening for some other reasons, so the bug is actually of high priority, not low.

Ehm, medium, seeing as that is not really a core application.
