Bug Description
I can't reproduce this on my Dell Inspiron 11, but it does happen on a Dell XPS13.
1. Download Ubuntu and write it to an SD Card
Note: The SD Card was written using Etcher from a Mac - maybe that has an effect?
2. Boot from the SD Card and do a default install (UEFI is on)
3. When trying to write grub to the boot partition grub-installer chooses to write to /dev/mmcblk0 instead of /dev/sda and fails.
