Previous boots / installations were with Legacy (BIOS) in UEFI enabled. In last
trial Legacy was disabled and boot/installation was from standard UEFI with
SecureBoot disabled. Still error at grub2 package installer.

When in Windows and using mountvol, I do not see a directory redhat,
only ubuntu. When I boot from from Linux, it skips this and will boot
Windows10 instead.
** Description changed:
Tried to reinstall Ubuntu 16.04 from a Live USB stick, since the
original install did not dual boot between Windows10 and Ubuntu. In
between I tried several Bios/Uefi options (....grrr) and had to
reinstall Windows10 to be able to boot the Dell Latitude Ultrabook 6430u
at all. Ubuntu reinstall fails at grub2 installation (pacakage grub-efi-
amd64-signal failed to install into /target/.). Tried to reinstall with
several options (download updates y/n and third partiy software y/n) and
also with a fresh live-usb. Fails in all cases. In Windows10:
\EFI\ubuntu directory seemed corrupt, has no files.
