Hi,
Googling xxx finds lots of stuff even pre VBox 5.0, like
http://askubuntu.com/questions/566315/vi...tive-shell
I found this:
Note that the VirtualBox EFI support is experimental and will be enhanced as EFI matures and becomes more widespread.
[/size]While Mac OS X and Linux guests are known to work fine, Windows guests are currently unable to boot with the VirtualBox EFI implementation.
Here:
https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch03.html#efi
and also this:
[/size][color=rgb(63, 0, 7)]VirtualBoxVirtualBox by default uses the BIOS firmware for virtual machines. It supports EFI too, but unfortunately does not support booting UEFI-based system volumes, which includes Windows 8 in UEFI mode. However, if you'd still like to test or use EFI with other operating systems, enabling EFI support is easy. Open the VM settings, select System, and on the Motherboard tab, select Enable EFI (special OSes only).
