If you have Windows 8 in UEFI boot mode only the 64 bit version of Ubuntu includes UEFI.

Is this a system that is locked? Most are not, but a few are.

Shows install with screen shots for both BIOS(purple) & UEFI(grub menu), so you know which you are using.

Also shows Windows 8 screens

Some other models of Asus, UEFI may be similar.

You also might turn off wireless until you have installed, then turn it on, and if problems, use an ethernet cable to download a proprietary driver if necessary. Your kernel crash looks like the wireless driver had a problem.

Hello minus2,
I had the same problem with my Asus VivoPc VM40B, using the same wlan chipset (realtek 8821).
I solved the issue in the following way:
1) install Ubuntu 14.04 64bits with the wireless lan disabled from BIOS (or UEFI).
2) upgrade of the linux kernel from 3.13 to v3.15-rc2-trusty.

After rebooting the wlan was visible (lshw) and up.

Hope this helps, and if you need details, just ask.
Ciao
