The same problem found using Lenovo Z480 and Z580 (my is Z580A) with Ubuntu 
12.04 and 12.10. See
http://askubuntu.com/questions/235942/ubuntu-12-04-and-12-10-fails-to-boot-after-usb-1-1-4
To workaround they use an old version of kernel:  kernel 3.2.0-29-generic.
The same problem with Z580 found at
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+question/215279
They found a workaround to remove a battery during boot  with AC connection.
I did not try it. There is not so good idea for me but may be a key to solve a 
problem.
Also the same problem reported at
http://askubuntu.com/questions/225538/uefi-boot-failure-hang-after-printing-usb-information
I try both variant of booting: with and without EFI. No difference.
I replaced a memory from 2+4 GB to 8 GB (Kingston 2x4GB KIT). The regularity of 
unsuccessful boots does not change.
