Ive tried lots of different installs of ubuntu and none of them have efi folder in the boot folder. there is a a grub folder withing the boot folder. Any help would be great. I should be fine once ive got ubuntu installed and booted upI'm not sure where you're getting that you should be looking in the boot folder, that's on a completely different partition. The boot path is /efi/ubuntu/grub_x64.efi, and it's normally located on the first partition of the internal storage.
Ubuntu 18.04 shouldn't require any post-install steps when installed clean, it didn't here. If you had another OS installed previously, you might need to manually wipe the partition table using gparted prior to install in order for the installer to properly install grub.
