Same message printed on the screen when just run grub-install, suspect it is 
grub 2.0 bug or defect….

Hi,
I encountered an error when installing grub 2.00 on my Linux system(boot from 
EFI BIOS), the error showed “source_dir doesn't exist. Please specify --target 
or -directory”
The error occurred after I run this command:
#grub-install -boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda

On EFI just run grub-install with no options, it finds /boot/efi/EFI and if 
necessary creates /boot/efi/EFI/grub and puts grubx64.efi there, and also 
writes an entry in NVRAM so it should get used by default instead of gummiboot.
