[Bug 1613052] Re: Failed to install grub in UEFI mode

[Michael Blennerhassett]

Yep, I ended up using the "use entire disk" option.

But the "install over ubuntu 16.04" option shouldn't really be
available, since there's no way it can result in a booting system in
this case.

(The warning message also said "Debian" rather than "Ubuntu")
