Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better.
A quick scan and I see the cause as being related to problems with device sda

This error caused the file-system to flip RO (to prevent data-loss), and the installation to subsequently fail.
I suggest you validate the health of your hardware (esp. disk by checking it's SMART status using `smartctl`, `gnome-disks` or whichever tool you prefer) https:/ /help.ubuntu. com/community/ Smartmontools. If you're unfamiliar with these, I suggest seeking support, options available can be seen at https:/ /discourse. ubuntu. com/t/finding- help/709
