[Bug 1588338] Re: Ubiquity fails to install on Mac Mini 2006

[Ranieri Batista]

** Description changed:

  I have a Mac Mini 2006. This model supports 64-bit and I had succesfully
  installed Lubuntu 15.04 64-bit before, but it has only 1GB of RAM. So I
  want to wipe my disk and clean install Lubuntu 16.04 (32-bit) on it, on
  UEFI mode, but after copying all the files, Ubiquity complains about
- grub-ia32 failing to install.
+ grub-efi-ia32 failing to install.
+ 
+ I thought installation failed because Ubiquity closed. But the system
+ was properly installed, only missing the bootloader. Had to load grub
+ from a pendrive, boot the installed system from command line and install
+ grub-efi-ia32, then it worked.
