To test the mainline kernel, you may need to first boot in legacy mode.
Then install the kernel and see if it can reboot in EFI mode.

Title:
  Failed to boot when install ubuntu16.04 beta2 desktop64 with EFI boot
  in Vmware ESXi

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I insatlled Ubuntu16.04 beta2 desktop (64bit) with EFI boot on a VMware ESXi.
  When finish installation and reboot, I notice this on boot:

  /dev/sda2: recovering journal
  /dev/sda2: clean, 184027/950272 files, 1023281/3801088 blocks

  And then it hangs right there

  It happens every time I reboot the VM.
  I reinstall the VM Ubuntu16.04 beta2 for more than three times in different VMware ESXi version and I always encounter this issue when rebooting.

  If I install the VM Ubuntu16.04 beta2 with legacy bios boot. this
  issue won't happen.
