Bug Description
Break of installation with following error:
"Failed to install grub.efi at /target/. Without a bootloader you will not be able to start the operating system"
The OS cannot be started in UEFI mode or elsewhere.
This happen when the installation is done with a Live-USB with persistenz and isn't distri-dependent.
The installed OS can be chrooted & updated, nevertheless a post installation of grub.efi is not possible.
Starting the installation with a DVD (without persistenz) solve the problem.
I suppose that persistenz (done with ext2) cannot understand GPT or UEFI
