Fortunately I was able to run the EFI shell and manually launch grub. From there I discovered that the EFI boot catalog contained no entry for GRUB. It appears there has been a regression in kernels later than 3.8.0-7 that causes it to fail to update the EFI variables. After running grub-install, it reports no errors, yet fails to show the efi boot catalog as it does when it works. Manually running efivars shows the ubuntu entry has been removed. Checking dmesg shows: [ 25.965586] efivars: set_variable() failed: status=8000000000000009 [ 25.981816] efivars: set_variable() failed: status=8000000000000009 This happens on kernels 3.8.0-{15,19,23} but works correctly in -{6,7}. --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: psusi 2310 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: psusi 2310 F.... pulseaudio CRDA: Error: command ['iw', 'reg', 'get'] failed with exit code 1: nl80211 not found.
