I have just tried the latest daily build of Saucy Salamander: 10-Oct-2013 08:51.
I'm not sure if it is progress, but I get a different error now, probably related I guess. After choosing either to boot to Ubuntu or Install, both bootloader options lead me to: Busybox V1.20.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.20.0-8.1ubuntu1) (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1025283 Title: LiveCD/USB will not boot in UEFI mode Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “linux” source package in Raring: Confirmed Bug description: I tried to boot from the LiveCD in UEFI mode as I wished to install my UEFI capable workstation in UEFI + GPT mode. If I boot in legacy mode, it boots up without a problem but of course, does not allow me to install in UEFI mode. I get the following error over and over: udevd[114]: timeout: killing `/sbin/modprobe -bv pci:v00001000d00000073sv00001028sd00001F78bc01sc04i00' [182] Then finally: udevadm settle - timeout of 120 seconds reached, the event queue contains: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0 (1588) /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0/host6 (1588) /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0/host6/scsi_host/host6 (1588) Seems to perhaps indicate that the disk controller is having a problem. It's a Dell PERC H310. Seems strange given that it boots up in legacy BIOS mode fine. I'm attaching a lspci -v. I can provide whatever additional information is required.
