Title:
  grub2 error on 64-bit efi system - fresh install fails

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When doing a fresh install on a 64-bit EFI system, GRUB 2 does not
  install correctly when the computer is not connected to the internet.

  It is similar to Bug ​#1279470, but it is a different distribution: it
  is Ubuntu MATE 15.04 Beta 64-bit Live DVD, not Xubuntu or Lubuntu. The
  Live DVD was booted in EFI mode.  Secure Boot was turned off in the
  BIOS.

  When I connected to the internet and turned off Intel Rapid Storage
  Technology in the BIOS, then I could install GRUB 2 and the computer
  could boot into Ubuntu.

  Still, I think it would be worth checking into this, so that an
  internet connection would not be required to install Ubuntu MATE.
