Hello

I recently spent some time working on getting EFI installs going.
It took rather a lot of digging to find out how to set up an EFI
partition in a partitioning recipe so I thought I would try to
make the documentation more accessible.

Please consider merging the attached patch.

Kind regards
Vince

Subject: [PATCH] Update EFI example

Use a common architecture (amd64) in preference to an unsupported one.
Also, give an example of a path to a specific recipe within partman-auto.
