Bug Description
Live booted from 20.10 installer on SD card on Dell 7390 Developers edition.
20.10 Install fails at grub install no mater which disk MBR install is set to (Error on Grub-install says insufficient space).
My hunch, but not a lot of evidence to prove it, is that it is trying to install MBR / grub on currently live-mounted SD card, and failing, despite confirming the MBR setting on the installer screen is set to internal drive multiple times and retrying.
(Note - I had a Previously working 20.04 install, so I don't think my EFI Partition is corrupt, and it has plenty of space).
