Ubuntu Desktop 64-bit Daily Build from 19.03.2014 (trusty-desktop-amd64.iso). Original bug tested with Ubuntu 13.10.

Everything else works as usual. Only an error message at startup and EFI boot menu instead of test graphical installer.

Yes, if you enable efi later you will break things -- this is normal. The question is do you see the problems you describe when you had EFI enabled when you first installed, and don't change it?
