How to manually install grub-efi-ia32 on Ubuntu 16.04?
Hello! When installing Ubuntu on a laptop with 32bit UEFI, an error appears when the installation is completed:
The 'grub-efi-ia32' package failed to install into /target/. without the grub boot loader, the installed system will not boot.
Tell me, please, what to do with this? Is it a matter of the distribution kit or can it be somehow corrected from under the LiveCD?

Everything has already been tested without you.
You are doing something wrong. Try relatives.
32bit UEFI is some kind of game. I recommend enabling CSM or Legacy mode depending on the motherboard and installing without UEFI.
In principle, if the Live CD starts, then load grub32-efi from the rep and only then install. (On the flash drive, check the correct location of bootia32.efi). However, this file can be thrown manually into / EFI / BOOT / if it is not there.
There is an option without manual labor: rewind the ISO using the isorespin program
In short, this isorespin prepares the ISO for installing Linux on platforms with Atom and Apollo Lake. That is with uefi-32. And then as usual. Ubuntu comes after Windows without knots. Elementary 5.0 Juno is better to put on an empty (from the word completely) disk. That is, unallocated space on a GPT disk. I did this because of an installer error.
I found the error in that I could not rewind the ESP partition mounted by the LIve system even under root. Kind of busy, don't worry. And ubuntu offered to unmount everything superfluous during installation and that's why everything is installed. Therefore, I decided to install Elementary on a disk without ESP at all. That is, on an unallocated volume. Installed without a hitch.
