Thread: Ubuntu 12 Windows 7 UEFI dual boot - blank purple screen

-

i got new laptop (asus k55a) , trying dual boot ubuntu along windows 7 (boots uefi mode , has gpt partition).
finished installation livecd. able use ubuntu livecd common applications, video/graphics/audio/wireless/touchpad seemed work fine.
when start computer, see grub menu ubuntu , windows option. able start windows7 grub menu (worked after doing boot-repair) when select ubuntu goes purple blank screen , remains there until turn off power button.

can next further diagnose or fix problem? latest boot-info
http://paste.ubuntu.com/1278578/
code:
you can reboot computer.  please not forget make bios boot on sda1/efi/ubuntu/grubx64.efi file!    boot files of [ubuntu 12.04.1 lts] far start of disk. bios may not detect them. may want retry after creating /boot partition (ext4, >200mb, start of disk). can performed via tools such gparted. select partition via [separate /boot partition:] option of [boot repair].
i did not make changes bios boot shows correct options (ubuntu/win7), changing bios boot help?
have sda1 fat 32 boot partition @ start of disk, don't understand why adding new ext4/start of disk partition needed.

appreciate these forums. use rh linux @ work development first time doing linux install on own machine, guidance/help here.

while on grub boot line, edit remove "splash", ctrl+x continue booting.
