** Description changed:

  Ubuntu Cosmic Desktop 20181005

  Test Case:
  1. Boot in BIOS mode and install on entire disk
  => Verify that the system boots
  2. Boot in UEFI and perform a new installation alongside previous one
  => Verify that you can boot to the new system

  Actual result
  It fails immediately on boot with a message from the uefi firmware (its very brief because the system reboots immediately in a loop):

  """""
  System BootOrder not found. Initializing defaults.
- Creating boot entry "Boot0011" with label "Ubuntu" for file "\EFI\ubuntu\shim64.efi"
+ Creating boot entry "Boot0011" with label "Ubuntu" for file "\EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi"

  Reset System
  """""

  The BIOS installation boots fine if I switch back to BIOS mode.
  An UEFI installation on entire disk boots fine.

  Log files of the UEFI installation attached.

  The EFI partition is created and its content is:
