[Bug 1515013] Re: Ubuntu/Xubuntu shows error when installing GRUB on Lenovo IdeaPad Z510

[Bartosz Skrzypczak]

I tried Boot-Repair from livecd. It showed an error "Locked-ESP
detected". It was caused by <efipartition>/EFI/boot/ubuntu being empty
(probably from some failed installation). WHen I deleted this directory
Boot-Repair successfully installed GRUB.
