Close or delete this bug - I have 64-bit versions of Ubuntu AND Win-8. But an OLD BIOS that does not support uEFI. While updating Grub thru Ubuntu, it somehow decided I would need uEFI, and installed it. Then allhell broke loose. I kept getting errors with every apt-get update, including BOOT-REPAIR, until I finally manged to remove the OS-Prober and the UEFI. Now, my main problem is that my Grub-update does not see my Win-8 boot anymore! (But I'm in no hurry to boot Win8 ) ;-) But that's another issue! (I think) Consider this as something other than a bug. Unless you advise otherwise.

As well, Grub seems to want to use EFI, but I am on an old Mainboard AWARD BIOS, and don't know how to get rid of this EFI stuff. Currently booting Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 8. (NOT 8.1) with 8GB of RAM. - Ubuntu 3.13.0-43.72-generic 3.13.11.11 Basically, all is ok- i.e. I can use Grub to boot either Windows or Ubuntu, but package maintenace keeps giving me these EFI errors!
