   Regarding CBM64's problem, I might have a solution, or at least a   
   workaround:   
      
   First, you should try to manually create the boot entry using   
   'efibootmgr'. If this fails (I had this habitually happen to me on   
   an HP Elitebook 2560p), then you should rename the bootloader efi   
   file to "bootx64.efi" and place it in a directory named "BOOT" (I   
   am not sure if the capitalization matters) on the root of the EFI   
   partition. This is a fallback option that should always work (it   
   does for me), even when the UEFI system's NVRAM is unwritable.   
      
   Regarding maus's problem, I don't have a clue.
