After Ubuntu is finished installing, then what do I do to actually run Ubuntu?

Leaving the CD-ROM device in the VM will just boot to the iso file, and deleting the CD-ROM device results in booting to the UEFI shell. I know if you type "exit" in the shell you can change boot options, but everything appears in order.

I'm sure there's something simple I'm not doing.

Go to Boot Maintance in EFI then go to boot from file, then EFI, then debian, the grubx64.efi and hit enter. It will boot into Ubuntu then run these commands
Code:
sudo -i
mkdir /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT
cp /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi


Hope that helps
