Hey, Bob.  My suggestion would first be to scope the issue: I'd try 
installing with Ubuntu's default installation; it should be able to 
figure out the UEFI stuff, etc., all by itself.  If *THAT* boots, then 
maybe try again, leaving the UEFI partition created by Ubuntu alone (but 
telling the installer to use it).

Good luck!
