Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 20.04 beta (2020-03-31) install process crashes in grub-install step.
It may be UEFI boot related issue, because Ubuntu live USB was started in UEFI 
mode, but hard disk contained Windows 7 OS installed in BIOS mode and there is 
no ESP partition on hard disk.
I've selected advanced mode and choosed XFS file system for root.
I think Ubiquity should work correctly in such situation and simply install 
correct GRUB version - GRUB-EFI if there is an ESP partition and GRUB-PC if 
there are no ESP partition.
