Bug#756253: Upgrade from 2.02~beta2-10 to 2.02~beta2-11 left grub unbootable

[Steve McIntyre]

Hi folks,

Returning to an old bug that's still affecting some people...

I can see that lots of you are reporting problems with efibootmgr
failing to write/update UEFI boot entries, complaining about lack of
space.

In #852513, Norbert *may* have found the cause - lots of data being left
in /sys/fs/pstore. If you're still seeing these problems, could I ask
you to please check there on your system too? This might be a common
cause, and I'd love to get some data here.

I've also just filed two new bugs to track things here:

 * #853234 (grub2-common): grub-install ignores errors from efibootmgr
   I have a simple fix for this which I'm about to post upstream.

 * #853237 (efibootmgr): ENOSPC errors should be more helpful
   Data from you would be helpful here!

Thanks!
