Title:
  /boot/efi is not mounted in "Rescue" mode Ubuntu Server 11.10

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Starting Ubuntu Server 11.10 in Rescue mode leads to multiple options.
  One of them is reinstalling grub.

  On a EFI system grub reinstall will seem to work and no errors are displayed.
  But grub is not reinstalled to the EFI partition, because /boot/efi is not mounted.

  Workaround: mount the EFI partition manually to /boot/efi and then reinstall grub.
  Extra info: If the EFI partition is not mounted a grub reinstall still appears to finish successfully, while it is not!

  Note: This was on the x64 build of Ubuntu Server 11.10, but I wouldn't
  be surprised if it the same situation applies to x86.
