You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The system has a HDD (sda) for data and a SSD (sdb) for system. In BIOS,
SSD is given as first disk but this is not recognized by kernel. The
system has a legacy BIOS, no EFI.

At the installation all the options have been activated (full
installation with updates and HW drivers). The installation was
requested to use entire SSD (sdb) without LVM.

When installation is finalizing, an error pops up that installation of
grub to /dev/sda failed. Installation was requested to be done to
/dev/sdb, so it is likely that some grub install parameter was wrong.

I unplugged SATA cable of HDD to let SSD be /dev/sda and installation
was successful.
