(Get the code!)
Reconsidering the situation here it should be rementioned that this problem of not being able to boot any kernels from liveDVD could be directly related to very poor EFI implementation as well as vendor hard coding. Have considered trying to run FirmWareTestSuite set of tools to try and get some accurate information regarding what my firmware is capable of or not. Not sure if these tools can be used on a system with no working Ubuntu. (did have EFI booting Ubuntu but she is broken and really struggling to recover from mountall errors) .
Considering this could be a or multiple Ubiquity grub possibly even shim bug or firmware hardcoding problem - Should i change this bug to a question?
