[Bug 1273871] Re: grub-efi-amd64=2.02~beta2-5 produces invalid .efi files, rendering system unbootable

I use grub-efi-amd64 myself and it's working fine for me, so you'll have
to provide more information.  Are the .efi files in question non-zero-
sized?  What sort of system do you use, and is there anything unusual
about your boot loader setup?  Can you provide the output of "sudo grub-
install -v"?  Anything you can think of that could be helpful here ...
