Public bug reported: Trying to install 20.10 from USB created from ISO downloaded, install fails at 'Grub install to /dev/sda'. This happens with both Kubuntu and Ubuntu. I chose 'Something else' at the 'where to install' prompt ('Manual' for Kubuntu), as I have a 256GB GPT SSD on a Thinkpad X201 (BIOS boot) which has two c.45GB partitions on which I alternate Ubuntu releases and a c.150GB as '/home'.
