[Bug 1469245] Re: Following install GRUB menu does not appear on startup

[Phillip Susi]

Which one is mounted in /boot/efi?  sda3 or sda2?  It looks like you
have some sort of non compliant UEFI firmware that I would classify as
malware and it is refusing to let you boot anything but windows.

Title:
  Following install GRUB menu does not appear on startup

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu was installed on a new Lenovo E50-00 desktop PC using a USB
  stick alongside Windows 8.1.  The installer was used to create a data
  partition for Ubuntu.  First install failed with the install hanging
  while 'completely removing xfsprogs'.  The install was rerun using the
  data partition created on the first run and completed successfully.

  What I expected to happen: The GRUB menu appears on start up.

  What does happen:  The GRUB menu does not immediately appear on start
  up.  It is necessary to use F12 on start up to call up the machine's
  boot menu and select 'ubuntu' (see attached screenshot).  The GRUB
  menu then appears from which Ubuntu can be booted.

  The USB stick for the install was booted in EFI mode.  The
  installation is EFI and the version of GRUB in use is grub-efi.

  There is a partition (sda3) named LRS_ESP which contains folders 'EFI'
  and 'onekey'.  The folder 'EFI' contains only a folder 'Microsoft'.

  There is a folder /boot/efi/EFI that contains folders 'Boot',
  'Microsoft' and 'ubuntu'.
