[Bug 779589] Re: Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 does not detect uefi

[Ubuntu Uefi User]

Sorry for the misconception. I'm now able to boot from the the 2TB hdd
if I use the mainboard in non UEFI mode (bios emulation). 11.04 server
installer hangs on uefi mode. (since the firmware/bios update 0524)

I get a menu now (since update, before it stayed blank) when I run the
installer in UEFI mode, but after that it won't boot. If I read the
changelog correctly for the kernel this seems to be a fixed kernel issue
on <3.0 kernels.

The boot issue is still a work around because the installer won't boot
in uefi (maybe usb installer issue). It won't boot UEFI after the
installation either, because it detects the BIOS emulation during the
install.

Title:
  Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 does not detect uefi

Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub-installer

  Installed Ubuntu server 11.04 amd64 on an Intel D510MO with Uefi
  enabled on a 2TB harddisk, no boot.

  The installer installs grub-pc in the last stage of the installation.
  Because the disc is to big for regular boot it will be unbootable even
  after disabling UEFI.

  Are there suggested work arounds or parameters I can give te installer
  to force installation of grub-EFI?

  disc layout:
  /dev/sda
  1 mb grub
  1,98 TB / btrfs
  2 GB swap
