Bug Description
On an UEFI System, shim should always be used as a first stage loader, no matter if secure boot is enabled or not.
This would allow the user to enable or disable SecureBoot on demand and would still lead to a bootable system.
Current situation:
Wenn you install ubuntu 12.10 on a system where SecureBoot is disabled and enable it afterwards, it would not boot, complaining about an unsigned loader. This happens as grub seems to be booted directly instead of using shim
