gives me no reply at all. The first repair-kit is on an usb-drive formatted in FAT32 to repair grub. Entering the BIOS it is flashing from the usb-drive.
Before all that I tried without success to execute the commands above with
sda for SATA-hdd.
And not even
seems to work. Think I am done with uefi. :-(

Starting now in efi mode the mobo tells me startup.nsh, wow, backslashes all over the place. This shell must be nuts.
This link gets me some help https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/grub-efi-amd64
allthough I am at the very beginning of this.
...great.
while trying to unpack the rescue-kit on my usb-device, at the laptop there it says after typing
where the directory named /save is containing the debian-file. So there is a conflict at the basic, where the usb-drive with this very specific debian-packet is on an usb-drive that is formatted in FAT32 to fullfill the requirements of UEFI but working in the wrong place.
Any hints for this nutshell of microsoft? Setting the SATA to another plug? Thanks in advance.

"This represents only the beginning of the uses and benefits of EFI shell commands and scripts. Not only can EFI be used similarly to a MS-DOS device driver, its capabilities also remove the hassle of modifying the OS. Disk utility vendors can use EFI to craft powerful tools like platform-independent disk partitioning. Another of EFI's benefits is that the same device drivers can be used by many EFI-compliant platforms, thus providing a good return on investment. EFI allows users to create device drivers to access hardware directly without having to go through the OS, making the process both simpler and faster."

When mounting a USB stick or pen drive on a FreeBSD machine I always issue the following command:

I would probably set all my rubber points here to get some real help for creating a boot device on a usb-stick. There is no CD-drive on this machine, thats why I need to use a usb-stick. And scrumming in a CD-drive to fuddle around in the fstab or something like that is out of reach.
