[ubuntu] error: unknown command 'drivemap'. error: invalid EFI file path

Hi all!

My girlfriend purchased an Asus UX31a Zenbook with Windows 7 preinstalled. I talked her into trying Ubuntu 12.04 but now I cannot boot from the recovery partition anymore (Windows 7 recovery). Whenever I try to start from the Windows partition I get the following error "error: unknown command 'drivemap'. error: invalid EFI file path". I tried several solutions suggested on the Web but nothing worked (including trying to repair grub).

My only goal is to boot from the recovery partition to have Windows 7 installed again (I don't intend to use Ubuntu and Windows 7). Has anybody an idea how to do that? I can mount the recovery partition, if this is of any help? Can I just copy the entire recovery partition on an external harddrive and then boot from it?

Thank you for your help!
