Yesterday I decided to upgrade from Ubuntu 17.10 to 18.04 and to use a bootable USB drive to do that. The plan was to assign partitions of the 18.04 to the existing partitions of 17.10 but that's where I think I hit a snag.
First, a little bit about my setup - it was a dual-boot system spread over an SSD and an HDD. Only the documents were stored on the HDD (think downloads, pictures, basically the entire /home folder and it's Windows counterpart) - everything else was on the SSD.
Now, back to the problem - it looks to me like I created a second EFI partition by explicitly assigning the /boot location - which is how it used to be with 17.10, but it seems like it was installed in legacy mode. Here's what the fdisk used to say before the reinstall.

It looks like this might be the answer to my problem - to install the Linux EFI bootloader to the existing EFI system partition - but I wanted to double-check with the community if that's actually the issue. Thank you for any and all advice!
