[Bug 1840857] [NEW] Couldn't run grub-install on created EFI partition. Doesn't like boot on an NTFS

[martyfranchuk@gmail.com]

Public bug reported:

Couldn't run grub-install on created EFI partition. Doesn't like boot being on a small NTFS. Wants it to be vfat.
I can't change that without wiping out existing Win 10 Pro install. Not going to mess with that.
