I had such a case. The efi of my old server(it was Intel MB) only
supported a 16 bit vfat boot partition. And if during installation I

and I could not boot in EFI mode. See the default parameters
“mkfs.vfat –F”.

That could be a difference. I was migrating an existing install onto a new disk so all my EFI partitions were created manually so I might well have overridden default arguments if thats what the instructions I was following said to do. It could also be dependent on the age of the EFI BIOS. With newer ones being more flexible about VFAT format.
