can try adding it manually (if supported by the firmware), by adding the file
`\EFI\proxmox\shimx64.efi` as a custom boot entry.
+NOTE: Some UEFI firmwares are known to drop the `proxmox` boot option on reboot.
+This can happen if the `proxmox` boot entry is pointing to a Grub installation
+on a disk, where the disk itself not a boot option. If possible, try adding the
+disk as a boot option in the UEFI firmware setup utility and run
+`proxmox-boot-tool` again.
