Public bug reported: Grub installation fails reported as fatal error. I was trying to install Ubuntu 20.04 on my ASUS X555LD-XO334H with Windows 10 installed. I've created a 70GB clean partition on windows. Then, I've started from a live USB and did all the steps for install. On the partition steps, I've created a 2GB ext4 /root partition, then a 4GB swap and the remaining with /. When I tried to go to next step showed an advise that no EFI partition was created. I went back, clean the last partition, create a new one, as EFI with 256MB. Then, I created a ext4 as / with the remaining space. With that I was able to go to next step, the Time-zone. After a while I received the message. The report went automatically to you.
