It boots into a seletion, where I only can select  windows, and the sekection menue doesn't look like the
typical grub menus.

However, if I start with the Kubunt 14.10 (64bit) installation disk and instead prompting for Kubuntu
I type 'c' to get into the grub menu,  which I then exit again ( sometime I gave to repeat this),
I get a familiar looking boot selection from which I can start linux. Once it started everything is fine.
Currently we just do not switch off the Laptop, we just hibernate.

Best regards,
Peter

Title:
  I can't boot ubuntu after installing it dual-boot from kubuntu 14.10
  CD prallel to windows 8.1, UEFI secure boot, on an Acer Aspire E15.

Status in shim package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  However I can boot into the newly installed Kubuntu 14.10 folling the
  followinf procedure:

  -> starting with installation cd
  -> swiching into boot grub boot promp
  -> typing exit.

  --> then i can select booting from the hard-disk.

  Booting without live CD directly boots Windows, pressing F12
  gives me a lelection where i can only select Windows.

  Any help?

  Best regards,
  Peter
