Bug Description

I tried to install ubuntu on my PC for the first time but for some reason the Grub installer couldnt be installed. Afterwards i was asked to select a different partition, but that didnt work either. On the prefered Harddisk there is allready windows 10 installed but i thought that is no problem

Your hard disk is partitioned to boot in EFI mode but you tried to install Ubuntu in bios mode. You will need to boot the install cd in EFI mode.
