so far I can only confirm that the grub installation fails with both stable and testing. It seems something is at odds with writing the efivars. I did not yet get around to try again if I can switch the installation back to using grub-legacy somehow.
I would not mind going back to Wheezy, if necessary. I envisioned the notebook machine for composition tasks when away from the office; so about the only software I would be using is Emacs, xdvi, and a dictionary, along with something such as rsync or scp or git to transfer new material back to the desktop upon return to the office. The notebook is much preferable to pen and paper. RLH
