This turned out to be defective boot drive.

    Grub got hosed on a UEFI ZFS root-based Linux Mint machine. I tried 
reinstalling it and got this error message


    grub-install: error: cannot copy `/boot/grub/x86_64-efi/core.efi' to 
`/boot/efi/EFI/arch/grubx64.efi': No data available.

    The file /boot/grub/x86_64-efi/core.efi is intact and indeed was properly 
copied to  /boot/efi/EFI/arch/grubx64.efi, so what could this error be about?
