I tried the install again while connected to the internet. I received the error below.![]()
"The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB bootloader, the installed system will not boot".
I have 6 other Ubuntu based distros on this PC that installed and run without a problem. They are Ubuntu 16.04, Peppermint OS 7 respin, Bodhi Linux 4.1.0, Ubuntu Mate 16.10, Zorin OS 12 beta and Black Lab Linux.
I restored Grub by booting into Peppermint OS 7 on a flash drive and running Boot-Repair for Grub2.

...interesting that you experienced the same problem that I reported in post #106 of this thread, while installing the LL3.2 uefi testbuild, when connected to the internet.
So, if I am not connected to the internet will the 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package install okay?
Is the internet connection the source of the problem?
In the end, did you get the testbuild to install correctly - I'd be grateful if you could give a few more
details, as I would like the LL3.2 testbuild installed instead of Linux MInt 18, for the dualboot with win10 on my uefi laptop.
Cheers
Mike
