[Bug 1786539] [NEW] GRUB won't install

[Chris Jensen]

Public bug reported:

I've tried to install Ubuntu 18.04 on two different hard disks,
selecting GRUB to install in different locations each time. Hasn't
worked on 5 attempts so far. Checked the USB drive for errors and none
were found. System seems to install but without GRUB I can't boot into
any of them.
