[Bug 1784232] Re: Grub-install failed because of no EFI mounted, but msinfo32 indicates an older BIOS

[Per Heldal]

Revised description: The cause is that the partition intendeed for EFI
had been given an incorrect tag and thus was not mounted. The problem
would have been uncovered if the installation would refuse to proceed
without EFI-partion when one is required. (duplicate)

** Changed in: grub-installer (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
