LinuxQuestions.org - Linux on Windows 8 (UEFI) NEED HELP WITH Grub.cfg file!

I'm trying to install Linux on my personal Windows 8 laptop (Sony Vaio Flip 15).

To my knowledge there are currently only two distributions of Linux that support Windows 8 (Ubuntu and Fedora)
I have tried Ubuntu with no errors running the distro live.(I did not try installing it)
However, for the tasks I'm trying to accomplish I need Back track5 r3 (or *preferably) Kali

I have currently installed Kali Linux on a USB flash drive using:
Universal USB Installer ()
At this point, I have configured my laptop to boot from an external device before booting form the internal hard drive. I understand Windows 8 uses Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and not BIOS. Therefore, I have disabled secure boot and created the following directory in my USB flash drive root.

/EFI/BOOT
Within this directory I have copied (Bootx64.efi & Grubx64.efi) from Ubuntu; additionally, I have created a Grub.cfg file (

As of now I have been able to
1). Boot into GRUB shell - Unfortunately I do not know how to boot Kali from the shell
When I attempt command boot (error: you need to load the kernel first)
2). Boot kali install menu - when I attempt to run the distribution live it encounters the following errors:
Error: Disk 'hd0,1' not found
Error: You need to load the kernel first

In an attempt to fix the above 'hd0'1' error I have changed the set root=(hd0,1) to (hd1,1) as my USB is currently listed as disk 1 (under windows management)
After changing the hd, the grub recognizes the HD but can not find:
/live/vmlinuz boot=live noconfig=sudo username=root hostname=kali
*VMLINUZ is the file It needs to find*
So basically (I'm assuming) I'm still not booting the correct hd? because the usb contains the live folder and has vmlinuz file in it!

IS THERE ANY WAY TO ENSURE THE CORRECT (hd0,1) or (hd1,1) or (hd?,?)
Also, what's with grub saying I need to boot the kernel first ?
(am I not already trying to do that?)
***BTW the Grub.txt file attached is actually the

Thank you for your time!
