Description of the issue (ideally so that others can reproduce it):
Attempting to increase the EFI partition created from running "rear format -- --efi /dev/sdb will on create a 200Mib partition.
Attempt to edit the value set here: test "$USB_UEFI_PART_SIZE" || USB_UEFI_PART_SIZE="1024" in the /usr/share/rear/format/USB/default/300_format_usb_disk.sh file still results in a 200MB partition.
Workaround, if any: Not yet. Any tips or tricks would be much appreciated.
