Title:
  The ubuntu 18.04 installer went through the installation process and
  then suddenly halted, said I cannot install the grub bootloader. Looks
  like I am cooked. My machine is useless without an operating system. I
  did not even keep my older ubuntu 14.04  installation.

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I got  ubuntu 18.04 a couple of weeks ago. I finally got to trying an
  installation. I did not even keep my older installation and now the
  single problem is that it cannot install a grub booting program. I
  have no idea what to do to install grub separately. The machine will
  not boot without grub. My goose is cooked. What should I do now?
