OK, checking the log here (thanks for sending them!) the critical piece is: Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: grub-install: Warnung: Cannot read EFI Boot* variables.^M Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: grub-install: Warnung: read_file: could not read from file: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler.^M Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: grub-install: Warnung: vars_get_variable: read_file(/sys/firmware/efi/vars/Boot0007-8be4df61-93ca-11d2-aa0d-00e098032b8c/raw_var) failed: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler.^M Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: grub-install: Warnung: efi_get_variable: ops->get_variable failed: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler.^M Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: grub-install: Fehler: failed to register the EFI boot entry: Eingabe-/Ausgabefehler.^M Jul 10 09:41:19 in-target: Failed: grub-install --target=x86_64-efi ^M This is odd behaviour - your system identified OK as UEFI earlier, but the grub-install command is failing to even *read* the UEFI boot variables. I've never seen that happen before. I'm hoping that our main Grub maintainer Colin can follow this a little further... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com Dance like no one's watching.
