I have read this page before reporting the bug. As I've written, no kernel message is displayed. With the default kernel command line, no message is displayed at all, the machine freezes with a blank purple screen.
With the "quiet splash $vt_handoff" part removed, the last signs of life I get before the computer freezes are EFI GRUB messages: Booting a command list Loading Linux 3.13.0-21-generic ... Loading initial ramdisk ... (see attached picture) Same thing with the 3.13.0-20-generic version. I do not have the machine handy right now, I will test later today with set gfxpayload=text.

With both 3.13.0-20 and 3.13.0-21, the boot process fails very early: even without "quiet splash" in the kernel command line, I do not get any message beyond those of EFI GRUB (loading kernel & initrd).
