Ubiquity 21.04.19 installed via apt on a previous iso daily-build as an iso with 21.04.19 at the moment is not available.
DESCRIPTION:
- Partition table: msdos (MBR)
- /dev/sda1 with Ubuntu already installed
- /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda3 both Ext4
Installation modality: Install Ubuntu 21.04 alongside...
As 3 primary partition are already used, the installer is forced to use the remaining space creating an extended partition with logical partition inside:
- /dev/sda5 ESP (EFI)
- /dev/sda6 Ext4 for Ubuntu
But EFI partition should be primary, not logical.
Then grub-install fails.

- /dev/sda6 Ext4 for Ubuntu
EFI partition should be primary, not logical and as expected a popup:
Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed
This is a fatal error
Despite this the system get installed and it is bootable.
Probably because of the recent changes on Ubiquity package.
Anyway, the 'grub error' message can be tricky!
