Public bug reported:

I tried to install Xubunti 18.04.1 LTS on a HP T610 Plus thin client
with the 1.20 Rev A BIOS (recently upgraded from 1.16 Rev A).

The installation proceeded normally until the bootloader was installed
-- grub-install failed.

I ran grub-install a second time from a console and got the same error
as seen in the installer:

<pre>$ sudo chroot /target grub-install /dev/sda
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
Could not delete variable: Invalid argument
grub-install: error: efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry: Block device 
required.
</pre>
