[13.10 64Bit Beta1]-UEFI GRUB Not Working After Install?

[mvaar]

I have the same problem. With boot repair, I just installed grub to MBR. Doesn't solve the problem.

UEFI has been broken in kubuntu 13.04 and 13.10. Unfortunately, kubuntu doesn't give the option of non EFI grub at all- opensuse gives you that.

I had previously reported my experiences with this and you might find it interesting to read the comments on this topic.

I had exactly the same problem a month ago when I installed Saucy alpha. So my memory is vague as to how I fixed the problem. Here is what I can remember.

I was using a usb installation that was generated by the Startup Disk Creator package. After the installation failed with the grub prompt, I rebooted with the usb installation system and did the following:

sudo add-apt-repository http://ppa.launchpad.net/yannubuntu/boot-repair/ubuntu
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install boot-repair

From memory, the update gave an error as the repository did not have a version for "saucy". So I used Muon to change the yannubuntu source to "precise" and repeated the update and install steps.

I then ran the boot repair and followed all the requested inputs and accepted all the default options. I was very surprised that I could do this with the installation "disk". I was then able to get the installed system working.

I hope that my memory is correct and that I have not led you astray. I also hope that this problem with the UEFI is fixed before the final release.

[13.10 64Bit Beta1]-UEFI GRUB Not Working After Install?

Hi,

I downloaded Kubuntu 13.10 64Bit Beta1 and verified the md5sum and burned to a DVD and verified the burned DVD.

I successfully installed Kubuntu 13.10 64Bit Beta1 onto my desktop, but when I boot system I get a GRUB prompt and no OS ?
Seems like something went wrong with UEFI GRUB installation? (BIOS does show Kubuntu UEFI HDD)

How do I fix this problem with Kubuntu 13.10 64Bit Beta1 on my desktop?
Thanks!

PS - I have an Asus Sabertooth 990FX Gen2.0 AMD motherboard with UEFI.
