[Bug 1885414] Re: on flavours ubiquity: bootloader failed on /dev/vda

[Per-Inge]

Made an USB boot disk with mkusb and tested the Groovy Ubuntu Desktop
amd64 version 20200709.

Worked with MBR/BIOS mode on a desktop computer with an AMD Bulldozer CPU and Nvidia 1660 GPU. There were however some peculiar things
- Graphical artifacts during the installation. Perhaps "Safe graphics mode" is needed.
- Had to power off after the installation to boot the computer
- At boot you get the message: BootOrder not found. Initializing default. Creating boot entry "Boot002" with label "ubuntu" for file \EFI\ubuntu\shimx64.efi

Worked as expected on a newer computer with Ryzen CPU and Radeon GPU.
