    I did find this solution.. And it seams to fix the problem for me..
    Code:
    apt remove shim-signed grub-efi-amd64-bin --allow-remove-essential

    This was an bad idea... Don't reboot the machine, as it might won't boot anymore!

    Run these commands:
    Code:
    sudo apt-get purge grub\*
sudo apt-get install grub-efi
sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo update-grub
    You also need to validate if grub is still installed with
    Code:
    sudo ls /boot/grub/
    , post the output here.

    Ok it seems like the boot and esp flag is missing which is why grub can't detect esp. Did you change your disks in this server?

    Code:
    sudo parted /dev/nvme0n1
(parted) set 2 esp on ( NOTE: try this it may fails as the disklabel is dos)
(parted) set 2 boot on
(parted) p
(parted) quit

# Do the same for the /dev/nvme1n1
sudo parted /dev/nvme1n1
(parted) set 2 esp on ( NOTE: try this it may fails as the disklabel is dos)
(parted) set 2 boot on
(parted) p
(parted) quit
    Report back with the output

    I've just realized what is happening here...

    Revert these changes
    Code:
    sudo parted /dev/nvme0n1
(parted) set 2 esp off
(parted) set 2 boot off
(parted) set 2 raid on
(parted) p
(parted) quit

# Do the same for the /dev/nvme1n1
sudo parted /dev/nvme1n1
(parted) set 2 esp off
(parted) set 2 boot off
(parted) set 2 raid on
(parted) p
(parted) quit
    Then try installing grub like so:
    Code:
    grub-install /dev/nvme0n1

    Alright there's the issue. Please install the package "grub-pc"
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install grub-pc
    And then try installing it again with
    Code:
    grub-install /dev/nvme0n1

    This look correct. Now to boot of off both drives, install it on the other disk as well:
    Code:
    grub-install /dev/nvme1n1
    Then update grub with:
    Code:
    update-grub /dev/nvme0n1
update-grub /dev/nvme1n1
    Then let's remove that conflicting package:

    Code:
    apt autoremove --purge grub-efi-am64-signed
apt autoremove --purge grub-efi-amd64-bin
apt autoremove --purge grub-efi
    Check back if the error still occurs with:
    Code:
    apt upgrade
    Report back with output of the commands
