  Ubiquity grub-installer failed to install to /dev/sda

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
  Release:	20.04

  Expected install process to complete without incident. Machine (Lenovo
  Thinkpad Edge E325, Type: 1297-2SG) has previously been exposed to
  Ubuntu 12.04, and 14.04 (primarily LXDE and XFCE) and Fedora 32 and 33
  (Gnome, KDE) without problem.

  Fatal error occurred during fresh install on hardware. Minimal install
  selected, with updates and drivers etc. and automatic partitioning
  (did also fail with manual partitioning).
