Description Darren Hart 2012-04-06 20:28:57 UTC 
The grub-efi-native recipe only supports msdos partition tables and fat filesystems. Most EFI installations apart from removable media use GPT and a EXT filesystem.
Comment 1 Darren Hart 2012-04-06 20:29:42 UTC 
This is easily fixed with a minimal change to the grub-efi recipe. The impact is easily tested and is very contained.
