Yes, it is now booting. This is with the rEFInd stick:
root@mc:/boot/efi/EFI# mount /dev/sdf1 /boot/efi
mount: /dev/sdf1 is already mounted or /boot/efi busy
/dev/sdf1 is already mounted on /boot/efi
root@mc:/boot/efi/EFI# apt-get install --reinstall grub-efi

A baffling point: In rEFInd the path is /boot/efi/EFI/debian/grubx64.efi
After booting up into the HDD instance, I get:
root@RoxTor:/boot# ls -a
. config-4.0.0-2-amd64 grub System.map-4.0.0-2-amd64
.. efi initrd.img-4.0.0-2-amd64 vmlinuz-4.0.0-2-amd64
root@RoxTor:/boot# cd grub
root@RoxTor:/boot/grub# ls -a
. .. fonts grub.cfg grubenv locale unicode.pf2 x86_64-efi
root@RoxTor:~# cd /boot
root@RoxTor:/boot# cd efi
root@RoxTor:/boot/efi# ls -a
. ..
This is nothing past /boot/efi
Any idea what is going on?
