Bug#905319: /bin/efibootmgr: Unable to boot after executing grub-install in XPS 15 9550

[Marcos Dione <mdione@grulic.org.ar>]

Package: efibootmgr
Version: 18-2
Followup-For: Bug #905319

Dear Maintainer,

    I have encountered a similar situation. Mine's a Dell Precision 5520 from 2018. lshw lists this as the FW info:

     *-firmware
          description: BIOS
          vendor: Dell Inc.
          physical id: 0
          version: 1.21.0
          date: 10/19/2020

    DMIDecode says something similar.

    Sledge's suggestion, namely:

https://wiki.debian.org/UEFI#Force_grub-efi_installation_to_the_removable_media_path

    worked like a charm.

    ktxbye,

	-- Marcos.
