Public bug reported: Installing Xubuntu from an USB-Stick (or DVD) onto another USB stick fails, if the BIOS is in UEFI mode. Grub can not be installed then. This happens in the 17.04 BETA as well as in the final ISO for desktops. - Please have a look into it.
I can not provide much data due to the fact, that I am installing from DVD/USB-Stick without the full GUI available. Thank you.
