Looks like for some reason your bless command tries to announce efi
partition by uuid. I'm not sure where this uuid comes from, perhaps it's
uuid from gpt but I would suspect that EFI has troubles finding your
partition because of this try:
1) you could bless manually by writing corresponding data to nvram
2) you could try on HFS+
