[Bug 1110080] [NEW] [grub2] need to use grub command to boot kernel in UEFI Security boot

[XiongZhang]

Public bug reported:

I have a machine which support UEFI 2.3.1, so I want to verify ubuntu 12.10 UEFI security boot .  I do as follwing steps:
1. install Ubuntu 12.10 on UEFI mode
2. boot to Ubuntu 12.10, then  apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed
3. cp /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi-signed/grubx64.efi.signed /boot/efi/EFI/grubx64.efi 
4. add canonical-uefi-ca.der to DB  and enable UEFI Security boot in bios setup interface
5. boot to EFI shell and run grubx64.efi (copied from step 3)

 But after this grub2 run, the system enter into grub shell, it seems it
doesn't load grub.cfg file. I have to use grub command to boot  ubuntu
kernel, it is very inconvenience. Is this normal ? or whtat I did is
wrong ?
