Or perhaps this just doesn't work, and I should go back to MBR? I've 
read somewhere that on newer kernels (3.3+, if I recall correctly) grub 
could become obsolete since there are some modules(?) to boot using 
UEFI, so perhaps this is an option - if someone could point me in the 
right direction? I believe that jessie could be mature enough for this.
