[Bug 1841310] [NEW] Installed new SSD - initialised as Ext4 - installation proceeded o.k until it came to wrire 'grub' then failed.

[Phil Ferrar]

Public bug reported:

At the point of failure - looked at drives available - all seem o.k. Do
not understand why it was unable to create grub. Have done a similar
thing recently [multiple SSDs in desktop, and installed Linux Mint
telling it to place grub on same device as installed system. This keeps
all of the OS's [Windows 10, Cloudready, Mint, or Ubuntu ?] separate and
avoids complications. Just switch 'boot' drive using BIOS key.
