[Bug 1775963] Re: Trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 and getting grub-install error

[Phillip Susi]

Your EFI system partition is corrupt; you will need to repair it with
either dosfsck or Windows' chkdsk/scandisk.

Title:
  Trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 and getting grub-install error

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 and during the time grub is being
  installed, receive error "Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed". I
  have tried many of the solutions on-line (askubuntu, ubuntu wiki,
  etc.) and have not been able to get around the problem. Event tried to
  install 18.04, but installer freezes as it's trying to do a grub-
  mount.

  I have a HP Pavilion 15-cc055od Intel Core i7-7500U 2.7 GHz that is
  already running Windows 10 Home (trying to set it up for dual boot);
  8GB Ram 1TB disk

  Please advise...
