Windows on ARM is standardized with UEFI+ACPI, but that's only because Microsoft didn't half-ass it.

But I thought those bootloaders were still locked to Microsoft's signing key? So even if you have UEFI+ACPI on WinRT devices, you still can't install Linux can you?

Secure Boot was broken and Grub is running in UEFI mode perfectly. Sadly, Linux doesn't support ACPI on ARM 32-bits, so you don't get beyond early kernel init
