As a side note, I just found why my Sony Vaio SVS1511L3ES had this problem (had because I just fixed it ;-)
Sony is using the crappy Insyde H2O UEFI that has no UEFI boot menu. It always uses whatever it finds under /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi. When I installed Ubuntu 12.10 in December 2012, I copied the GRUB grubx64.efi to that path. Upgrading to 13.04 and 13.10 went without problems and I forgot about the hack until now. With Ubuntu 14.04, one has to copy grubx64.efi again. Problem fixed. I doubt Boot-Repair knows this little trick, but I haven't checked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289977 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-release-upgrader/+bug/1289977/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
