Bug Description
I'm on a VM from LINUXVMIMAGES.COM.
On upgrading from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 the installation of grub-pc detectedt a different media giving me the option to delect another drive where install grub. Even selecting a drive (correct one) the dialog ask me to proceed without installing grub. This dialog looped through those screens, in the end I used xkill to complete the upgrade.
In the end, with "dpkg configure -a" I was able to complete the configuration of grub-pc through the the ncurses dialog.
So, seems broken the gui configure dialog.
