  • Between your mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot and the mount /dev/sda1/boot/efi is the requirement to chroot (this temporarily moves the top of your directory hierarchy (i.e. /) to the /mnt directory). You didn't mention this vital step; did you miss it? Commented Mar 25, 2015 at 0:16
  • Sorry, I didn't mention it, but I religiously followed the steps. My problem now is that when I use sudo update-grub, it only changes /boot/efi/grub/grub.conf and when I turn on my pc and grub loads, it appears to be using /boot/grub/grub.conf instead, which isn't being updated.
