Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

Hi,

The i386 version of d-i installs GRUB to the EFI partition at the end
of the installation process. The files installed are
/EFI/debian/grub.efi and grubia32.efi. Intel Macbooks from 2006-2007
(Macbook1,1 and Macbook2,1) have a somewhat peculiar EFI
implementation and do not boot with the EFI files in this location.
When either of the (identical) GRUB EFI files is copied to
/EFI/boot/bootia32.efi the firmware finds it and booting is
successful.

D-i should detect Macbooks with 32-bit EFI and install the GRUB files
to the appropriate location in that case.

When grub-install is called with the --removable flag, the EFI
bootloader is installed to the correct location,
/EFI/boot/bootia32.efi.

Best,
Teemu

Hi,

similar to the installation-reports bugs, I'm closing the grub-installer reports 
below.

These are reports for Debian 4 / 6 / 7 / 9 where grub-installer fails (for 
various reasons).


There have been numerous changes/improvements on this topics in the past, and 
also because of the age of the reports we should consider these problems as 
being fixed (or it is even reported in the bugs that they are fixed).
They are most likely of no use anymore for recent releases.

If you know, that the issue you reported (and gets closed here) is still 
existing in recent installation images, please file a new report for that with 
up-to-date details!

Thank you for filing these bug reports, they have been very useful at the time 
they were filed!
