** Description changed:
Ubuntu Cos;ic Desktop 20191005
Test Case:
1. Boot in BIOS mode and install on entire disk
=> Verify that the system boots
2. Boot in UEFI and perform a new installation alongside previous one
=> Verify that you can boot to the new system
Actual result
It fails immediately on boot with a message from the uefi firmware like
"Cannot find a valid boot entry" (its very brief because the system reboots
immediately in a loop)
+ The BIOS installation boots fine if I switch back to BIOS mode.
Log files of the UEFI installation attached.
The EFI partition is created and its content is:
.
./EFI
./EFI/ubuntu
./EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi
./EFI/ubuntu/shimx64.efi
./EFI/ubuntu/mmx64.efi
./EFI/ubuntu/BOOTX64.CSV
./EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg
