Public bug reported: The Ubuntu installer aborts when installing GRUB2 for EFI. Guessing from syslog, the issue might either be that secureboot-db is not being installed (message at the end of the aborted installation), or probably that /boot/efi does not contain an /EFI directory (message earlier in the process).
