Hi Christopher, Re-adding grub-devel. Next time please do not drop it if it is not required. Other people may learn something from your experience too.

Thanks for the clarification. Another option is CONFIG_EFI_MIXED in Linux kernel. If your kernel is build with it enabled then... Enabling this feature allows a 64-bit kernel to be booted on a 32-bit firmware, provided that your CPU supports 64-bit mode. Note that it is not possible to boot a mixed-mode enabled kernel via the EFI boot stub - a bootloader that supports the EFI handover protocol must be used. Above thing is an excerpt from CONFIG_EFI_MIXED help. I hope that helps.
