Same when changing the GPT partition type from EFI to simple data (?)
like the other partitions.

On inspiration from Alex, I tried a hybrid MBR (gdisk h command), using
06 as MBR type for the EFI partition, but same result.

Apparently so. But searching the kiwi sources on GitHub for "vboot" or
"gpt" didn't exactly result in handy hits to tweak... :(

sysconfig-network has been replaced with wicked-service, restoring image
builds.

With manual partition and boot.scr tweaks, for the first time with
kernel-default I got output on HDMI, but boot got stuck with KIWI not
finding the boot partition - probably caused by the MBR conversion.

Update: Right now, image build is broken again, sorry:
