[Bug 1825561] Re: grub loader not installed cannot load os

[Christopher Doreau]

** Description changed:

- I am not sure if it's the fact that AMD 64 version is installed. Ubuntu
- 18.04 LTS attempted to install and it says it failed to install Grub
- loader so upon start up the OS will not bootup. I have an older laptop a
- Sony Vaio VGN-Z620N which originally used Windows Vista Business (32
- bit) but can no longer find drivers so after HDD failed and replaced
- with SSD attempted to reload original OS but cannot find all drivers and
- thus no WLAN or Video feed thru HDMI so I attempted to install Ubuntu.
- Not sure if I should install another version of Ubuntu or what I am
- missing....
