Problem in Installing Ubuntu 18.04
1
I've been struggling to install Ubuntu 18.04 on brand new Dell G5 15 - Gaming Laptop.
I followed all the instructions in the existing answers about this matter, but no luck yet!
Sample of What I've Tried
I went to the Bios and did the followings:
- Disabled Secure Boot
- Changed SATA from RAID to AHCI
- Bios is already in UEFI Boot Mode
- Also tried to disable PTT and Enable Legacy Mode
For the Installation:
- I pressed
eand addedacpi=offso the installation splash screen is not freezing anymore. - I partitioned the HD to mount
/boot/efi, swap area, root/. - I always connect to Internet before the installation.
- These answers
The Error
It keeps installing all packages until it reaches the grub-efi-amd64-signed, then it throws:
grub-efi-amd64-signed package failed to install into target
Following are some screenshots:

Any Help is a Trillion Time Appreciated!

did you create the partition map yourself or let the install do it? you selected the "erase everything and install" option?

@JoshuaBesneatte Yes I created it myself.

I would say to let the install handle the partitioning, and see if that works. Don't do any customization, just erase and install and it should work just fine.

keep in mind this will set up for your system... so if you have bios in efi mode, it will set up for that (efi partition, etc), and if in legacy mode it will set up for that ( no efi partition )
