[Bug 1639374] Re: grub-pc fails to remove, rendering lubuntu uninstallable on EFI machines

[alexe]

Thank you all for the support. I have installed UBUNTU insted of LUBUNTU
and had not problems.
The PC was an HP with little hardware space 30GB and I thought LUBUNTU will
be a bit lighter.

Thanks again,
Alexe
