Perhaps command line is not passed to loader correctly, you can verify
it with the OSX loader:
set root=(hd0,2)
chainloader /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi -- -v
boot
Please try this out, if parameter -v is passed to the loader, you will
see console screen before switching to GUI.

In debian, all I have to do is to add the sid line to
/etc/apt/source.list, apt-get update, then apt-get install
linux-image-xxx. Ubuntu is based on debian, the process should be
similar.
