A lot of things are moving around in /boot over the last year=2E
Pure speculation; if you're using a usb stick=2E Mount it from your
currently running system, and

cd <mount-point>/boot
rm =2E/loader
cp -p =2E/loader=2Eefi =2E/loader
umount <mount-point>

Then see if it doesn't work for you=2E Like I said, pure speculation=2E
But you indicated an old box=2E So I think you might find this works=2E

Best wishes!
