Oh, that's very strange. We've seen reports of similar behavior before when
the firmware's nvram space has been filled up (see
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2013-April/037029.html). But
if this is a new install, I don't know why you would have that problem, and
it still doesn't explain why the installer set this to grubx64.efi in the
first place.

First thing's first, can you check that you have the 'shim-signed' package
installed? ('dpkg -l shim-signed') If not, please install it with 'sudo
apt-get install shim-signed', then run 'sudo grub-install
--uefi-secure-boot' again.

If that still doesn't fix it to let you run under secure boot mode, please
do the following.

Show the output of this command:

$ ls -l /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/

Please then also try running these commands from the commandline (one
immediately after the other), and paste the output:

$ sudo efibootmgr -v -c -d /dev/sda -p 1 -w -L ubuntu -l '\EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi'
$ echo $?
