Similar problems with ASUS1215B with Ubuntu Studio 13.10Beta2 and Ubuntu 13.10Beta2

I managed to get an install of Ubuntu13.10Beta2 running by using the USB stick to get a GRUB prompt, then entering command mode and doing "source (hd0,1)... grub.cfg" where ... was a path leading to the grub.cfg installed on HD.

Running either boot-repair or efibootmgr (as described in http://superuser.com/questions/376470/how-to-reinstall-grub2-efi/376471#376471) causes an immediate message "Killed" which, if one looks in dmesg, turns out to be a kernel oops similar to that reported here.

Ubuntu Studio 12.04 was previously installed fine and this problem is reportedly older than that (11.10), so I am puzzled. There once was a windows installation but it was deleted some time ago and Ubuntu Studio 12 was wiped when installing 13.
