Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 20.10

Grub installer failed to install on /dev/sda

tried installing grub manually via "Try Ubuntu" terminal.

unallocated all drives. I have 120gb SSD and 250 HDD.

EFI partitioned
Bios partitioned
No swap partitioned

I think it's an error for both Ubiquity and Grub

I tried boot-repair no luck. details are as follows:
