And in the website you given here, it also gives the example like the flowing: sudo efibootmgr -c -d /dev/sdc -p 1 -w -L 'grub-mkstandalone-x86_64 usb' -l \\EFI\\grub-mkstandalone\\grub-mkstandalone-x86_64.efi And this is the one I tried on my Debian/Manjaro/Ubuntu box, and it seems does the trick. But I still cannot figure out why they design the path format like this.
