[ovirt-users] oVirt Node 4.1.6 on IBM x3650 M3

I have seen this problem before. For some reason, oVirt Node 4.1.x does 
not always install everything right for efi. In my limited experience, 
it fails to do it correctly 4 out of 5 times. The mystery to me is why 
it gets it right sometimes. I solve the problem by manually copying the 
missing file into my efi boot partition.
