Ben, I don't know what to think about this. 2014.0 was know to be good for an efi install and I think we only had one problem box which to be honest was never satisfactorily resolved. I would advise investigating your bios to see whether there is a way to turn off secure boot. If you can boot the live image maybe you could try to install grub by mounting the drive and then installing grub to it. I'm sorry I can't be more help but I don't have an efi machine so I have no experience. I'll ask around for solution. Best, Colin
