[Bug 1786003] Re: How to install 18.04 in Legacy mode?

[mindaugasd]

Thanks, though your suggestion did not work.

But I got an idea - found another computer with a lot of bios options,
thus I will be able to choose Legacy mode and install there, then move
the HDD back to my computer and it might work:)

Title:
  How to install 18.04 in Legacy mode?

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installation I get this error:
  “The ‘grub-efi-amd64-signed’ package failed to install into /target/ . Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot.

  My computer is old, my bios is very simple and has no option to choose
  anything mentioning UEFI, secure boot, or any other fancy things.

  Disk partition table is MBR, partitions are custom made, multiple hdds
  are connected.

  Following these instructions does not help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI
  The booting screen shows neither black screen with options (UEFI), nor purple screen (Legacy). It shows totally black screen, and then Ubuntu loading logo appears.

  I had no such problem then installing Ubuntu 13.10, 14.04, 16.04 on
  the same computer.

  I tried maybe already 10 times to install in all kinds of ways, no way
  it works.
