Hi Pascal,

thank you for your reply.

According to your answer I used

(intiramfs) blkid
...
/dev/sda4: UUID="bff72c95-8954-45c5-8d41-6d843335395a" TYPE="ext4" 
PARTLABEL="Linux filesystem" 
PARTUIID="abc0eeaf-a36a-4004-98e4-5c4e8c423bd8"
...

and used the value of "UUID" as FS UUID in grub.cfg:

search.fs_uuid bff72c95-8954-45c5-8d41-6d843335395a root hd0,gpt4
set prefix=($root)'/boot/grub'
configfile $prefix/grub.cfg

Unfortunately the GNU/Linux boot ends up in initramfs again. So neither 
the value "UUID" nor the one for "PARTUUID" works for the grub config.

Any other ideas?

Best regards
Roland
