If people can comment on this ticket whether the following is true in their case, then the following page can be updated.

"In your firmware, disable QuickBoot/FastBoot and Intel Smart Response Technology (SRT). If you have Windows 8, also disable Fast Startup... Support for UEFI SecureBoot appeared in 12.10 and 12.04.2."

In my case I disabled both FastBoot and SecureBoot so maybe FastBoot was the root cause.
