Thank you Kent. Unfortunately I was not able to successfully boot after the grub stage. I am not sure if that is our bug or not, though. Following is the processed I used, but first I'll mention that I was unable to use the insmod method of installing our driver during Ubuntu install in order to have our device recognized. It kept telling me I had an incorrect module format. I made sure the kernel versions matched up, but was unsuccessful using this method.
Instead, I used a driver injection disk to have our device recognized and that worked: the os and grub both installed successfully. Then, because I don't have an option rom loaded on my card, I loaded our driver from the uefi shell and invoked grubx64.efi from the shell off of our device. This brought the grub menu up and I chose to start Ubuntu Server. I then get few print messages from our device and the OS does not boot. The reason I mentioned the insmod method is because I'm not sure if, even though the driver injection disk files worked, there was still some sort of conflict that I didn't see. Do you have any thoughts on that? Is there a different way of testing the fixes you would like me to try? I apologize I am by no means a Linux expert. Thank you for your time.
