I went through a fresh install.  Here are the details:

Using a new image of Ubuntu 21.10.
Download ISO.  Verify using checksum.  Use "USB Image writer" on virgin 32GB 
Stick. gdisk shows stick has 3 partitions: Basic, EFI, and Basic.  MBR is 
protective, GPT is present.
Format 120GB SSD to Fat32.  Box BIOS is set to "NO EFI".  Installation 
proceeded using all defaults. Reboot.
Boot message "Boot Failure".  Go to F10 screen and select hard drive:  Normal 
Startup.  
Replace disk with a Ubuntu 20.04.2 hard drive:  System boots normally without 
any failure message.
