I entered the BIOS setup and chose that the BIOS uses legacy
mode *before* UEFI, but that did not help neither
when I try to run grub-setup /dev/sda5 or any other partion
I obtain
Cannot stat aufs
So it seems that I really need grub-efi a pity that it is
not on the livecd!

Problem is the network card is not recognised so I cannot
install grub-efi, must download it on a another laptop.
