[Bug 1699653] Re: install completely stops at this point and says it can't install the grub stuff

[Phillip Susi]

You are trying to install in BIOS mode to a hard disk that is
partitioned with GPT.  To do this you need to create a 1 mb bios_grub
partition on the drive, or install in EFI mode instead, or repartition
the drive to use MBR instead of GPT.
