Bug Description
I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04.2 using the official install medium onto my NAS. My NAS contains three drives which I run in a RAID5 configuration with LVM on top. I setup each drive to have a 128MB EFI partition which stores grubx64.efi and put the rest of the drive under the RAID5+LVM configuration. The Ubuntu 14.04.2 and 15.04 installs were happy to let me do that however when I try to boot into the freshly installed system the GRUB command prompt came up.
While I was able to see the LVM partitions using ls I couldn't access them because I needed raid5rec.mod. I booted into a live CD and used grub-mkimage to create a grubx64.efi image which had raid5rec.mod, and all the other modules I needed to boot, embedded into grubx64.efi.
Possible resolutions
1. Store all grub modules on the EFI partition
2. Modify grub-install to create grubx64.efi with all block/file system modules embedded into the image needed to access the partition which contains the grub modules
