grub-install : erreur : impossible de copier « /usr/lib/ grub/x86_ 64-efi- signed/ grubx64. efi.signed » vers « /boot/efi/ EFI/ubuntu/ grubx64. efi » : Aucun espace disponible sur le périphérique.
This translates into No space available on the device.
Looks like it is trying to install grub into wrong device.
