[Bug 1748879] Re: UEFI issue, installer thinks board is uefi, but it is not

[sdowney717]

Most likely someday someone will run into this same issue I had, so just
turn it off in the bios that 2.2tb infinity mode.

Title:
  UEFI issue, installer thinks board is uefi, but it is not

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This msi board has  a bios that the installer thinks is a uefi bios,
  but it is not a uefi bios, so the installer tries to install uefi  and
  it can not so the install fails. There is no option to select any
  other install, like a non uefi grub legacy install.

  In the past, I posted to linux forums and finally found something
  about turning off 2.2tb infinity drive setting in the bios.
