There is a way to fix this, because I had the same problem with my DELL workstation, specifically with Debian. Basically, it boils down to a buggy UEFI, not finding the grub64.efi file at the location it expects.
Here’s how I fixed it: Install Debian under Expert Install, and somewhere down the road when installing the bootloader, it will ask you one additional question: https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--3CziEmvx--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_800/https://i.postimg.cc/sXq7WMR8/64.png
This will force EFI to find your bootloader. In my opinion, this forcing should be default on Debian.
This worked
I’m very glad! :) Indeed, it’s a bit of a hidden tip, I had to search a lot before I could get my Debian to boot too on my DELL.
