Title:
  Images built using ubuntu-defaults-builder lack EFI support.

Status in ubuntu-defaults-builder package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in ubuntu-defaults-builder source package in Raring:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  New UEFI systems shipping for Windows 8 will have secureboot enabled and won't boot in BIOS compatibility anymore.
  The images currently generating using ubuntu-defaults-builder don't contain grub2-efi and the required signed/unsigned kernels and so won't boot at all on a recent system.

  ubuntu-defaults-builder should be updated to generate something closer
  to our official images which contain both isolinux and grub2 and both
  unsigned and signed kernels.
