Dear Lonnie,

If you are targeting a native UEFI system, try the "efiimage" target 
that generates a binary that can be booted directly from UEFI (just make 
sure you boot the .efi file, not the .elf file). Or you can use the 
"chainloader" command if you already use GRUB 2 as your boot loader for 
UEFI.

The framebuffer example should use the GOP framebuffer and not rely on 
the VESA BIOS in this case.

If you also need an ISO image for UEFI, there is a patch upstream that 
provides the "grub2efiiso" target as a convenience [1] (not in the 
snapshot release yet).
