Public bug reported:

When installing Ubuntu GNOME I chose the following options:

Download updates - YES
Install 3rd party - NO
Keep UEFI - YES
Format:
  /dev/sda
    /dev/sda1: ext4 -> /
    /dev/sda2: untouched (Ubuntu 15.10)
    /dev/sda3: untouched (shared ext4 partition)
    /dev/sda4: untouched (swap)
Keyboard: USA
Login automatically: YES

Installation proceeds well until it attempts to install grub2, at which
point syslog shows "grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory"
