GRUB2 installs correctly with Debian Installer booting on isolinux on a classic BIOS boot, however when booting on UEFI, the GRUB installation step does not work indicating that the GRUB installation step failed (it is trying to install GRUB2 but not grub-efi and shim, the crash therefore makes sense), but I can't integrate the shim and grub-efi packages on my installer with live-build.
By precision, I use version 1: 20190311 of live-build and jer seeks to build my ISO and the debian installer with buster and my installer installs the content of my live.
Here is what I have already tried:
- Install mokutil, shim and grub-efi on the live and copy it to the ISO
- Try to integrate the concerned packages in the "pool" section of ISO (in the includes.binary section
- I indicated in my config file that I wanted syslinux and grub-efi as bootloaders
Here are my confs:

I don't have any log files, I just checked.
I hope I have given you as much detail as possible.
You will also find the configuration files in attachment.
I also specify that I installed a custom kernel built via a hook at the time of the ISO build.
I think it can play it, I haven't tried it yet (I'm still on the Debian Buster repositories during the build).
Thanks you.
Best regards
