Title:
  Critical crash while initial install of Kubuntu 20.10 at the step or
  grub install

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I have 2 hard drivdes, sda has Windows 10 and sdb has multiple
  partitions with test distributions of Linux.   When installing Kubuntu
  from a USB stick, the process fails close to the end when grub2 is
  ready to write to the mbr.   Then installer exits.    Repeated the
  process many times with same results.  Ensured no proprietary driver
  was loaded initially.
