Bug Description

Issue has happened multiple times when I try to install the latest version of Ubuntu from my USB stick. OS boots off the stick and I go through the install wizard. My Thinkpad has 2 hard drives, with the primary running Win11 beta. I installed Ubuntu on a partition on my secondary internal hard drive. The installation to my machine fails at the executing grub-install step. Oddly, that errors out but then I get a message saying installation is complete and to reboot my computer.
