If you do the grub install on the destination machine it should do the efibootmgr step for you.

It looks like grub-install does most what I need, maybe followed by a grub-update for good measure.

But getting things set up correctly before is a bit tricky. Particularly once the boot partitions on my SSD went south, I'm running from a live "CD", and I needed to "mount --rbind" /dev, /proc, and /sys into the dead system's file system, then chroot into it…and do it there.


I'm worried my new SSD (in my new computer) has problems. Twice I have had my /boot/efi vfat fule system get broken in such a way that it wouldn't fsck back to health. The good news is I'm getting good at rebuilding it, and have my notes in git and pushed to another system for reference.
Create the esp partition at the end of the drive then. You can have as many as you need. When you say ssd is that really an nvme?
