[Bug 879858] Re: Kernel panic after grub-install on UEFI Asus 1215B

[Gleb Peregud]

The same problem affects me. In fact this seems to be an error in kernel
itself. And it can be triggered just by running any efibootmgr command.
More details are here:

and

I can provide any additional information if needed.

Title:
  Kernel panic after grub-install on UEFI Asus 1215B

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:

  Package: grub-efi 1.99-12ubuntu5

  While installing Ubuntu on my Asus 1215b using a Live USB, A kernel
  panic was being issued and Ubuntu wouldn't boot. After trying to
  install manually (issuing a grub-install command), the same problem
  occurred. My partitions are as follow: a 100MB FAT32 efi partition on
  /dev/sda1, a 2GB swap on /dev/sda2, a 100GB ext4 partition for /
  (boot) and an ext4 partition for /home with what's left.

  Steps to reproduce:

  follow the guide here http://askubuntu.com/questions/53578/can-i
  -install-in-uefi-mode-with-the-alternate-installer/57380#57380 and
  execute grub-install using this command:

  sudo grub-install --recheck --no-floppy --force
