[Bug 779589] Re: Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 does not detect uefi

[Colin Watson]

This bug report seems to rest on a misconception.  You don't need grub-
efi to use a GPT partition table; even though GPT is part of the UEFI
specification, it's perfectly possible to use it with grub-pc.

Title:
  Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 does not detect uefi

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub-installer

  Installed Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 on an Intel D510MO with Uefi
  enabled on a 2TB harddisk, no boot.

  The installer installs grub-pc in the last stage of the installation.
  Because the disc is to big for regular boot it will be unbootable even
  after disabling UEFI.

  Are there suggested work arounds or parameters I can give te installer
  to force installation of grub-EFI?

  disc layout:
  /dev/sda
  1 mb grub
  1,98 TB / btrfs
  2 GB swap
