The issue was due to an EFI partition not being on the hard drive. I was able to correct by creating a FAT32 partition (flag boot) and then selecting as an efi partition during the install process.
This fix was spotted with a similar issue for Ubuntu 18.04 after a google search. Sorry but I cannot remember the link as I found it in the Ubuntu test disk
