You do not have an EFI-System-Partition, so Grub cannot be installed in
UEFI mode.

Try the installation again with an EFI-System-Partition or install in
the old BIOS mode.

  elected to go with UEFI despit the installer complaining there was a
  likelyhood I might not boot into a system using legacy BIOS boot.

Bug description:
  Nothing to add really - it was a clean install of my previously
  running system.

  I'll revert from backup if unable to complete process.
