[Bug 1653109] Re: Installer crashes when installing bootloader

[Phillip Susi]

Grub installs to /dev/sda by default because that is normally where the
bios will boot from.  Your /dev/sda is not partitioned, and so grub can
not be installed there.  Either partition this drive, or install grub to
another drive and make sure your bios is configured to boot from that
drive.
