6) create EFI image

You need to include all modules needed to access /efi/efi/grub into
grub.efi.
Like grub-mkimage -o /efi/efi/grub/grub.efi -p /efi/grub gpt fat
The TestingOnEFI page also lists normal and sh mode. I don't know if
they're really needed with EFI to be included directly.

hi,

thanks alot, I did a lot of progress with your help (and it was indeed my fault, I did not use the correct command line)

so now I can boot the Mac OS/X using grub-efi and the attached menu ; but I cannot boot linux

if I switch to command line mode, what I experience is as if there is a bug such that GRUB forgets about commands: that is, many commands do not return any outputs ; or sometimes they report an output the first time I use them, and no output from there on

a.

set timeout=10
menuentry "MacOSX" {
  # Set the root device for Mac OS X's loader.
  set root=(hd0,2)
  # Load the loader.
  chainloader /usr/standalone/i386/boot.efi
}
menuentry "GNU/Linux" {
  # Set the root device for GNU/Linux.
  #search --set /boot/vmlinuz
  set root=(hd0,1)
  # Load the kernel and initrd.
  linux /boot-fresh/vmlinuz-2.6.30-1-686 video=vesafb agp=off acpi=force 
libata.atapi_enabled=1  root=UUID=b36cdc79-6a50-46e5-8ab0-bc05238ca3bc  gpt
  initrd /boot-fresh/initrd-2.6.30-1-686
  boot
}
