[Bug 1770173] Re: 18.04 install stuck on grub install

Problem solved. There was a USB stick plugged directly in to the
motherboard which I had forgotten about since changing this box over
from a freeNAS install. Once that was removed, the install completed
with no hangup.

I'll include the output from the point where it was hung. Both from ps,
and from the full os-prober output in syslog. At this point, I'm happy
to close the issue, but if you would like any further testing on this
setup, I'd be willing to support that. I'm not sure if you would expect
a USB drive to hang up the install or not.

The USB stick was the boot drive for freeNAS, so the primary partition
was formatted as ZFS.
