First, the standard handbook still is BIOS-only - it should certainly
be updated and hopefully once it is migrated to the Wiki that will
happen soon.

Second, the 2MB partition is NOT your ext2 boot partition even if you
are using BIOS.  That is just extra room for grub to use.  The boot
partition in the handbook is 128M, which still seems a bit tight these
days.

Third, none of that applies to you since you're using EFI.  The most
likely problem you're having besides too little space is that your
boot partition has to be FAT32.
