An install log would be useful.

Some possible improvements here could be:

- curtin can add some additional heuristics for block-meta simple mode; size, speed, rotational, etc; but that's not always going to be right.

- maas could send custom storage config, and curtin could then apply the storage config before dding to a specified device;

Lastly, I think this problem can be resolved by selecting the boot device in MAAS.

Curtin has code which looks at storage config and finds a disk with a serial and grub_device: true, it will pick that as the target device for dd'ing the image.
