[Bug 1312787] Re: "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" in Ubuntu 14.04

If you're seeing this issue, please include the output of 'sudo
efibootmgr -v' on your system.

Grub *does not* write files to any other directory than EFI/ubuntu; so
it seems to me like most issues you'd see in this case would be due to
badly-configured EFI variables.

Title:
  "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" in Ubuntu 14.04

Status in grub-customizer package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The error was detected in the upgrade to 14.04.

  Found in 2 HP PCs with identical hardware.
  One of them has this problem after a fresh install of 14.04.

  They have UEFI. Only one disk.

  Although the error message is similar, none of the methods described in the existing bugs fixes the problem:
  - Boot Repair
  - dpkg-reconfigure grub-efi-amd64

  We can avoid this message using the BIOS boot menu.
  The option "ubuntu" is present, and after choosing it, there is a functional Grub.
  From there, everything works OK.
