Comment (by pierre):

 For jhalfs, no problem: it does not run the `grub-install` command (too
 dangerous), and lets the user do it at the end of the build (same for
 passwords, and creating a non root user, etc). So, there is no problem
 with the uefi branch in this respect. But ...

 I have tested the zeckma/uefi-support branch on my laptop (a Lenovo
 legion), and there is no way to select the hardcoded location in the UEFI
 menu! The solution I took was to use `efibootmgr` from the host to add the
 hardcoded location to the UEFI menu... I suggest to add a note or so,
 telling how to do that in case the harcoded location does not appear in
 the menu.

 Then the branch could be merged, IMO.
