Public bug reported:

When trying to install ubuntu 12.04.3 for a dual boot with windows 8 on
an Asus x301a, booting on EFI, with the standard installation, the
process fails with the message (french) : "le paquet grub-efi-
amd64-signed n'a pas pu être installé dans /target/. En l'absence du
programme de démarrage GRUB le système installé ne pourra pas démarrer"

Thanks.
