Public bug reported:

On EFI systems, the Ubuntu GNOME Remix image don't boot and we get this
error message:

    error: file `/casper/vmlinux.efi.signed` not found.
    error: you need to load the kernel first.

Also, looks like we miss some genisoimage parameters that will cause
boot to fail at all on some EFI systems.
