Bug Description

Booting a UEFI machine on 1.7beta8 on Utopic fails to load the grubx64.efi image. The TFTP server complains about unknown error code 8. If you deploy 1.7beta8 on trusty it works as expected.

Okay the actual issue is that the shim now requests the path for grub as "\grubx64.efi" instead of "/grubx64.efi
". We need to handle this on the tftp service.
