Hi Andrei,
thanks for your reply. I tried both /dev/sda and /dev/sda2. I ended up
solving the problem by making a total of three partitions: A small one
for EFI, another one for /boot, and the encrypted main partition. Small
snag was that the Debian installer cannot be persuaded to install the

Nevermind, I just found this workaround[¹]:
cd /boot/efi/EFI
mv debian debian-old
