I have the same problem with my Ultrabook SONY Vaio SVP13211STS UEFI is on and secure boot is off. Firmware is updated to the latest version.
Goal is a dual boot machine Windows 8 / Linux.
Installation of 13.1 hangs after message "loading kernel ..."
The installation does not have this problem with the installation disk for openSUSE 12.3. But when the computer restarts it does not find the installation and Windows 8 was damaged (luckily reparable).
Why does 12.3 start and 13.1 not?
I have not yet gone over all the recommendations above but the problem must be solved without asking the user for changing configuration files.
I solved the problem with shim (with secure boot off). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
