Your disk is currently partitioned to boot in bios mode, but you booted
the 16.04 installer in EFI mode. A warning message prompted you that
this could be a problem and recommended performing a bios mode install
instead, but you chose not to. You either need to perform the bios mode
install, or partition the disk using GPT and set up an EFI system
partition to install in EFI mode. This will be done for you if you
choose the "use entire disk" guided install option.

Title:
fail to install grub
Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
My laptop already contain windows 8.1 and ubuntu 14.04. The ubuntu is
new, while the ubuntu is pretty old, thats why I wish to install the
new ubuntu. But when I run the installer, it stopped at the grub
installation process with error 'grub-efi-amd64-signed failed to
install into /target/'. I've tried some sugesstion on the forums to
re-run the installer with internet connected & "download update"
option checked, but the same problem still remains
