I believe the partitions are being created in the wrong order. By manually partitioning, I have been able to get a bootable system with the following created in lsblk:
sda 8:0 0 3.7T 0 disk ├─sda1 8:1 0 1M 0 part └─sda2 8:2 0 3.7T 0 part / When I was in a chroot environment on the non-booting default partition scheme, the 1M partition was at the end of the drive as sda2. I believe the installer is partitioning the drive incorrectly when accepting the defaults. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1857789 Title: Ubuntu Server 19.10 Installer immediately boots to GRUB rescue prompt.
