Bug Description

On armhf and arm64 U-boot is now capable of acting as UEFI. This is great for devices such as the raspberry pi. However, grub-installer currently always tries to update NVRAM which is non existent on the pi.

I was going to write a patch to add a preseedable option to disable NVRAM, but I see somebody has already submitted one to debian https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=789798
