Title:
  Grub efi does not execute /efi/boot/grub.cfg and goes in shell mode

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu 15.04 in efi mode, grub efi amd64 does not boot properly:
  when the computer boots, it goes directly into grub shell mode, 
  it does not execute the grub.cfg configuration file in the efi partition (either /efi/boot/grub.cfg  or /efi/ubuntu/grub.cfg, depending on whereas the --removable option was provided or not).

  from the grub shell, executing the following command resumes normal boot operations.
  configfile /efi/boot/grub.cfg
  or
  configfile /efi/ubuntu/grub.cfg

  
  Reproduce this bug:

  install grub with:
  the alternate cd (regular ubuntu installation)
  or 
  grub-install --target x86_64-efi --efi-directory ... --root-directory ... 
  or 
  grub-install --target x86_64-efi --efi-directory ... --root-directory ... --removable

  and try to reboot.
