Title:
changes to the boot order made via efibootmgr are not sticking

Bug description:
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 beta on my HP Elitebook Folio laptop. Fresh
install, complete hard disk formatted. After successful installation I
rebooted. The system tells me I am missing the OS. Then from BIOS menu
F9 I could manually boot via EFI and got the system working. However I
could not change bios settings such that the system would boot
automatically via UEFI. After long trial and error with advice from
several IRC colleagues I somehow managed to get the system boot via
BIOS. But it seems that changes that are done to boot order, do not
stay permanent.
I was told that my boot firmware "assumes that a drive without a "boot flag"
on any of its primary partitions
in its msdos label cannot be booted via BIOS (again, only true with Windows).
