Public bug reported: Invoking
sudo -i mount /dev/sdxY /mnt/bla cd /mnt/bla mount --bind /dev dev mount --bind /sys sys mount -t proc /proc proc mount /dev/sdxB /mnt/boot mount /dev/sdxE /mnt/boot/efi chroot . apt-get install grub-efi update-grub grub-install /dev/sdx causes errors due to missing `efivars` with hint to run `modprobe efivars` and then prints `Installation finished. No errors reported.` (can't reproduce exactly right now, but it should be clear which message is meant). That is confusing! The final message should reflect whether errors have been reported or not.
