Public bug reported: The Ubuntu Installer failed to Install the Grub/Grub2 Bootloader (it says Grub2, but this page automatically placed "Grub-installer"). The installer warned me that because this package failed to install, I will be unable to boot Ubuntu from this disk. So I must repartition the disk and try again. If this happens again, I will continue using Windows 10 + privacy tweaks made in the registry.
