Hi to everybody

I tried many times today with the new 18.04 LTS, without success (SHA256SUM controlled).

I've followed too recommendations described here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFI#General_principles

I wanted to replace the last 17.10 OS with the new 18.04 LTS version and conserving the /home partition with the same user-name, as I done many times before, but the installation crashes always at the end : "grub-efi-amd64-signed failed installation /target/"...

The partition is a gpt one, SecureBoot disabeled in the BIOS, as usual... and the 17.10 version was working fine.

My mther board is a J4205-ITX asrock...

Any suggestion would be very welcome!

installtion completed without any issues.
