Failed to install grub2 while installing ubuntu
I am getting error while installing Ubuntu 18.04 LTS in my laptop. I can not understand why such problem is happening. The error is:
'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /target/. without the grub boot loader, the installed system will not boot.
Last week my laptop stop working and shutdown I tried all possible solution but iI couldn't start, then stared to install Ubuntu in my partition SDA6 (one of partitions) but at the end of installation process I got grub-efi-amd64-signed package failed to install.
boot grub2 partitioning uefi

Is it dual boot or Ubuntu alone?? You missed creating EFI Partition that's why you are getting that error. If it's Ubuntu alone. Create a EFI partition. ext4 / and then if you want /home and swap etc..

is it a empty disk or do you have data on it? Go with "try Ubuntu" option. Open GParted and post the Pic to see further..

The ESP - efi system partition must be FAT32 with boot flag on gpt partitioned drives. Only if using BIOS boot on gpt drive, then you need a tiny 1 or 2MB unformatted partition with the bios_grub flag. If using gdisk, the ESP is code ef00 and bios_grub is ef02. Actual code inside gpt partition is a very long GUID for partition type. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table

You are trying to install Ubuntu in UEFI mode without setting up partiton for bios-grub. You must have to create partition for it. Ideal size for it should be 100 MB.
I have created 90GB partition of ext4/ with 8GB swap but when grup2 installing start it terminates with such error
