Public bug reported:

I tried to re-install Ubuntu 18.04 because I was getting a series of:
  ima: Error Communicating to TPM chip
messages on start-up and then the system would loop on the dots start-up screen.
I was able to Ctrl-D to get a command line and run grub-update to refresh the 
grub menu.

TPM is Trusted Platform Module a uefi bios setting
that I don't see in my BIOS screen.

I have a multi-boot system.
The Windows 10 partition still appears to work 
but the suggestions for re-setting TPM from Windows 10 do not work for me.

It may be the grub-installer cannot be installed because of this TPM issue.
It may be this started happening after I attempted to install Ubuntu 20.10 on 
another partition.

I have tried the Boot Repair disk without success.
