LINUX VENDOR Canonical will drop Grub 2 in favour of Intel's efilinux as its
bootloader in order to comply with Microsoft's UEFI Secure Boot.

Following Red Hat's Fedora project announcing its plans to ensure that its
Linux distribution will not fall afoul of Microsoft's UEFI Secure Boot
mechanism, Canonical has detailed how it plans on working with Microsoft's
'security feature'. The company will dispense with Grub 2, a Linux
bootloader that it put significant work into, and modify Intel's efilinux
bootloader to add a menu interface.
