Should this bug be assigned to shim-signed, then?
With documentation I guess you meant
https://d-i.debian.org/manual/en.amd64/ch04s05.html

I'd prefer the section 4.5.1.1 to be split into a section 4.5.1.2
"PXE boot by UEFI" to emphasize the differences.
Should there then
filename "debian-installer/amd64/bootnetx64.efi";
be replaced by
filename "debian-installer/amd64/grubx64.efi";
?

Thanks a lot
Michael
