  installer lies about success installing grub2 on efi

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  installing natty on an efi system nothing suggests grub-install needs
  the efi partition mounted as /boot/efi and nothing suggests either the
  user it failed until one reboots and ubuntu does not boot.

  the magic behind /boot/efi isn't documented anywhere either leading to
  huge frustration to users.
