Public bug reported:
I can't boot Ubuntu 14.10 (64-bit desktop) on the Asus EeeBook X205,
which is a new model of netbook.
The UEFI firmware recognises the DVD, and it seems to do quite a lot of
IO before giving up, and returning to the firmware screen. I disabled
SecureBoot (which involves asking the UEFI firmware to remove all keys,
etc. from the NVRAM, which is a one-way operation apparently!), but that
didn't help.
The SHA256SUMS match, so the DVD isn't faulty. If I use Qemu on my
desktop machine with a UEFI firmware, then I can get as far as Grub. (I
used the command qemu-system-x86_64 -bios OVMF.fd -cdrom /dev/sr2)
I don't see any way to get a UEFI shell up.
