This issue can be fixed by copying the whole 'EFI' folder of
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/wily-desktop-amd64.iso into
the USB storage made by http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/wily/main
/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso.


** Summary changed:

- mini.iso's UEFI boot partition is empty
+ netboot mini.iso doesn't support UEFI BIOS mode installation.

Title:
  netboot mini.iso doesn't support UEFI BIOS mode installation.

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The amd64 mini.iso (in at least trusty through current vivid) has an
  EFI boot partition, but it's empty. This renders the image unbootable
  on systems without BIOS boot enabled.

  This is easily worked around by copying {boot,grub}x64.efi from eg. a
  desktop image into the empty partition.
