Subject: Work around HP firmware issue mapping 'BOOT' to 'Boot'
References: bnc#872503

Here is a basic patch against SLE12 grub2.

It tests if $prefix/grub.cfg exists and if not, uppercases prefix path and      
tries again. If successful, sets new prefix. (Or at least that's the            
theory.)
