This is a very serious issue, at least for me. I bought Asus Aspire Switch 10 E and I've been fighting to install Linux to it. This has been the closest one as a solution http://www.jfwhome.com/2014/03/07/perfect-ubuntu-or-other-linux-on-the-asus-transformer-book-t100/ , but bootia32.efi is a one issue. I can't make a proper one because I have 12.04 in current laptop (because it is old and due to the graphics I can't update it). I tried also one mentioned behind the link Anyway, I was able to get to the phase where in GRUB you manually define the kernel and then you boot the machine. Everything started promising, but then it stops to error message "mount: can't find root in /etc/fstab". I checked the fstab and it looked OK. But when I checked the /dev directory there were no mmcblk-devices, only in boot-USB had them.

I also tried to use Debian-distro which is mentioned in this discussion, but it won't boot up because of the security issue. BIOS of the machine has place where is said that enable all UEFI-boots as secure but I couldn't change it.

So my hope is that we will get this mixed distro from Ubuntu.
