Greetings,
I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 and OS X Mavericks in dual boot mode. I'm running in EFI mode, booting straight to grub as described here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro11-1/Saucy
This works great. MUCH better than using BIOS emulation and a hybrid MBR. I can boot into Ubuntu just fine after install, shut down, reboot. But as soon as I boot into OS X, I'll reboot, and it will boot straight into OS X again instead of grub. After doing a bit of research, I find that OS X is modifying the boot order in EFI back to MacOS first. I can repair this by booting up with a live usb, running efibootmgr and changing the order back to Ubuntu first.
This is annoying. Is there a way that I can keep OS X from modifying the boot order? I want to be able to boot OS X from grub and I don't want to install refit or refind.
