This is a really serious issue for anybody running/upgrading/installing Utopic under UEFI.
Another way of working around this limitation is to install the package from Vivid. Boot the system from a live CD and use wget to get ahold of the packages from Vivid: # Needed for the newer version to work correctly wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/e/efivar/libefivar0_0.15-2_amd64.deb wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/e/efibootmgr/efibootmgr_0.11.0-1_amd64.deb dpkg -i libefivar0_0.15-2_amd64.deb efibootmgr_0.11.0-1_amd64.deb Then run 'grub-update' (to make sure we have all the kernels accounted for) and then 'grub-install /dev/sdX' (replace X with the number of the harddrive you're using). After that booting in UEFI mode should be working again.
