Same message printed on the screen when just run grub-install, suspect it is grub 2.0 bug or defect….

Please specify --target or -directory” The error occurred after I run this command: #grub-install -boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda On EFI just run grub-install with no options, it finds /boot/efi/EFI and if necessary creates /boot/efi/EFI/grub and puts grubx64.efi there, and also writes an entry in NVRAM so it should get used by default instead of gummiboot.
