   Okay, yes you're right, didn't see those 2 partions. One partition is FAT   
   Type an the other seems to be not formatted. Does this makes sense then? Not   
   formatted means nothing there, right? I mounted the FAT to /boot/efi but did   
   not work. No option during boot process. I checked afterwards and the   
   partition is mounted   
      
   drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 16384 Dec 31 1969 efi   
      
   does this sound okay?
