I'm able to reinstall grub using default boot-loader ID "ubuntu"
But if I use custom name like "MyUbuntu" I cannot make a successful grub installation.
Test installation on a well-booting Ubuntu 18.04:
1: Delete existing grub:
rm -r /boot/efi/EFI/*
2: Install new grub:
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --bootloader-id=MyUbuntu /dev/sda
2: Update grub:
update-grub
System now boots into the Grub console.
The EFI was seeing the new boot entry in the boot menu just fine.


Just took a peak into the /boot/grub/grub.cfg, it still says:menuentry 'Ubuntu' --class ubuntu.....
