[Bug 1767705] [NEW] "Grub installation failed", on install of Lubuntu 18.04 (wiping Lubuntu 17.10, while keeping Windows 10 partition).

[Guy Keogh]

Public bug reported:

Occurs on install of Lubuntu 18.04 from USB flash-drive. I had set it to
wipe Lubuntu 17.10 and install over it, while keeping the Windows 10
partition.

It seems like the Lubuntu 17.10 partition has been wiped, but hasn't
been replaced.

I have had an issue with the Windows 10 partition, which is why I am
installing the new Ubuntu version, with the issue being that I can't
edit, move, or delete files in the Windows partition from Ubuntu.
