I have an Arch system with EFI enabled, and it does indeed mount via fstab the sda1 vfat partition as /boot. It's contents are: [ghost@archipelago ~]$ ls -alh /boot total 26M drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4.0K Jan 1 1970 . drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4.0K Mar 20 20:28 .. drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4.0K Dec 10 2013 EFI -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 18M May 15 20:01 initramfs-linux-fallback.img -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3.4M May 15 20:01 initramfs-linux.img drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4.0K Mar 15 2014 loader -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4.3M May 11 21:23 vmlinuz-linux Only one kernel and fallback installed, but that seems to be normal for Arch. Mine also uses gummiboot instead of grub so there's not a 1:1 comparison against your grub/Debian instance unfortunately. Think you're definitely on to something with the two sets of /boot you have - if you chroot in again, move the boot folder from your sda2 root elsewhere temporarily and then manually mount sda1 to /boot within the chroot before updating grub you may well get further.
