Public bug reported:

I'm on a VM from LINUXVMIMAGES.COM.

On upgrading from Ubuntu 18.04 to 20.04 the installation of grub-pc
detectedt a different media giving me the option to delect another drive
where install grub. Even selecting a drive (correct one) the dialog ask
me to proceed without installing grub. This dialog looped through those
screens, in the end I used xkill to complete the upgrade.

In the end, with "dpkg configure -a" I was able to complete the
configuration of grub-pc through the the ncurses dialog.

So, seems broken the gui configure dialog.
