He spent a lot of time but was good enough to publish his solution.
Here's another link you may find useful:
Managing EFI Boot Loaders for Linux: EFI Boot Loader Installation
I have tried both the links that you have specified. The first link has one difference to my problem. The person there was converting a BIOS installation to UEFI but I am already in UEFI. Plus, the command line options for grub-efi-amd64 like
--bootloader-id and
--removable are no longer supported. If you want I can probably provide my
man page to you.
The second link does not tell me how to make the grub bootable image. I need to know that since
update-grub fails for me.
