Well, good for you. I would've booted boot since what's the point? It
can just as well be a directory off / and /boot/efi can be the requisite
FAT partition. Especially as I at least usually have some largish rescue
iso like GRML in /boot as well. Don't need to fish around for some USB
stick for partition surgery when the rescue system is right there on the
SSD. And GRML makes it easy, there's a Debian package which generates a
GRUB entry to boot the ISO directly.
