After the Software Updater run of 7/9/2015, a new 3.13.0-57 kernel
(signed and unsigned) was added, and something added the "Boot0000,
ubuntu, shim" bootloader entry again, at the first position (where it
originally was). I did nothing explicit to add this shim entry, and the
machine is running with secure boot disabled. Attached is the
efibootmgr output and the diff of fwts outputs. My Ubuntu boot default
was restored, but something seems wrong with the update process changing
nvram.

Title:
changes to the boot order made via efibootmgr are not sticking
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I installed Ubuntu 14.04 beta on my HP Elitebook Folio laptop. Fresh
install, complete hard disk formatted. After successful installation I
rebooted. The system tells me I am missing the OS. Then from BIOS menu
F9 I could manually boot via EFI and got the system working. However I
could not change bios settings such that the system would boot
automatically via UEFI. After long trial and error with advice from
several IRC colleagues I somehow managed to get the system boot via
BIOS. But it seems that changes that are done to boot order, do not
stay permanent.
I was told that my boot firmware "assumes that a drive without a "boot flag"
on any of its primary partitions
in its msdos label cannot be booted via BIOS (again, only true with Windows).
