Title:
  [Dell Precision T7600] LiveCD/USB will not boot in UEFI mode

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” source package in Raring:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I tried to boot from the LiveCD in UEFI mode as I wished to install my
  UEFI capable workstation in UEFI + GPT mode.

  If I boot in legacy mode, it boots up without a problem but of course,
  does not allow me to install in UEFI mode.

  I get the following error over and over:

  udevd[114]: timeout: killing `/sbin/modprobe -bv
  pci:v00001000d00000073sv00001028sd00001F78bc01sc04i00' [182]

  Then finally:

  udevadm settle - timeout of 120 seconds reached, the event queue contains:
    /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0 (1588)
    /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0/host6 (1588)
    /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/0000:06:00.0/host6/scsi_host/host6 (1588)

  Seems to perhaps indicate that the disk controller is having a
  problem. It's a Dell PERC H310. Seems strange given that it boots up
  in legacy BIOS mode fine.

  I'm attaching a lspci -v.

  I can provide whatever additional information is required.

  Thanks
