[Shih-Yuan Lee]

** Description changed:

- 1) Ubuntu 14.04
- 2) grub2 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.8
- 3) Executing `grub-install` will install platform files by i386-efi on 32-bit UEFI BIOS.
- 4) It installed platform files by x86_64-efi instead.
+ 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
+ Ubuntu 14.04
+ 
+ 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
+ grub2 2.02~beta2-9ubuntu1.8
+ 
+ 3) What you expected to happen
+ Executing `grub-install` will install platform files by i386-efi on 32-bit UEFI BIOS.
+ 
+ 4) What happened instead
+ It installed platform files by x86_64-efi instead.
  
  P.S. Ubuntu 16.04 doesn't have this issue.
