Bug Description

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu
Lubuntu 16.10 desktop

I couldn't install Lubuntu 16.10 on DELL precision tower 3420.

3) What you expected to happen
A smooth installation.

4) What happened instead
a) Converted Lubuntu 16.10 desktop iso by using rufus and booted from USB and UEFI mode.
b) Cleared up samsung SSD by Gparted and set the partition table "gpt".
c) Lubuntu installer warned me to set LVM on this SSD, suddenly the installer stops.

Hardware: HP NX6110, different hardware also.
Lubuntu 16.10 I386
Media: USB drives(different ones) using dd to make the media

I have been through this several times with re-downloading the and making a new burn(USB drive) and trying to reinstall but always fails at the grub install.

Using the same procedure I can install Lubuntu 16.04 works every time.
