Title:
Ubuntu i386 images are not compatible with recent (UEFI) computers
I have heard that for EFI systems shim is used. Chroot-ing and
installing shim should fix it.
I also have a solution for the GPT situation. Creating a new image for
32-bit EFI systems could fix the problem (separating BIOS images from
UEFI images).

but ubuntu community could build a usb only d-i image to support booting those
targets. As for example http://www.minnowboard.org/ does fall into this
category of devices as well.

I have asus vivotab and seems like the only linux dist that support 32
bit of UEFI implementation is Debian EFI test CD.
i found a guide here: http://it-stuff-i-needed.blogspot.com/2013/05/my-
progress-on-installing-ubuntulinux.html
but i am unable to load the kernel thus having only the grub
I am a bit annoyed with Ubuntu. I had hoped that going to Ubuntu 13
32bit EFI support would be provided but ... Why it such a big deal
to provide a 32bit EFI iso?

I have a legitimate issue with this as well.
I just bought a Dell Latitude 10 with the intended purpose of trying out
ubuntu's more touch friendly features on my new atom 32bit processor.
As all dells now come with EFI instead of BIOS i'm suck until the 32bit
Grub is adapted to support EFI.

We need a fork for this, grub2/i386-efi by default creates invalid
entries.

This fork will be modified for only loading linux and chainloader
kernels, and only in UEFI mode. Remember:C language was crippled from B.

In fact, it's not actually the USB boot that's the problem, but CD boot.
I also don't understand the reluctance to release 32 efi compatible
media. The 64 bit media are well tested, support traditional bios
hardware, efi only and efi legacy. Why would this be different for 32
bit. Leaving it with the (often non-expert) users to install it
themselves with several hooks
PS . btw. ubuntu runs perfectly fine (though a bit slow) through the
emulator under windows 8 on my ACER W510. So I think there is no problem
with Ubuntu itself and these machines. It's indeed only the installation
support which is not up to par.

On a hard disk the EFI system partition is a separate partition, but I
did not think this was the case on removable media. I thought for CDs
you just got an /EFI directory within the normal iso9660 filesystem.
I thought the the partition table is part of the new hybrid cd stuff and
