This error suggests that you are attempting to use EFI GRUB on a non-EFI
system.

More specifically, you are using 'grub-efi-bootloader', but 'grub-efi'
failed to detect a UEFI system and attempts to install the 'i386-pc'
(BIOS) target instead, which does not exist in 'grub-efi'.

Does that ring a bell?
