In the 16.04 mini.iso, extracting /boot/grub/efi.img to the root of the
image works too - the UEFI support is provided, but not enabled.

Title:
  netboot mini.iso doesn't support UEFI boot

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

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.
