Public bug reported:

This is really frustrating.
It can not be done in 

Installing from live USB on which is hybrid ISO inswtalled using rufus.
whether dd or syslinux method, does not matter.result is the same.


PC construct:
dual graphics Intel I5 integrated+ AMD radeon
16gb RAM
InsydeH20 UEFI BIOS

PC prep:

pure UEFI mode with CSM module turned off 
secure boot on

Plan/Intent:

To install ubuntu studio 16.04.1 LTS using crypto partition I would like to 
make manuallly.
there would reside root , swap and according to installer/boot cannot be there 
to hold boot files (although there is whole EFI partition on GPT disk with more 
than enough space)


Problem:


whether secure mode on or off, installation  craps the pants at the very 
end.Apparently coffing at  putting data for dual boot on UEFI ESP partition.

CSM module on - gives me some ability to install as it apparently
installs it. without dm/crypto partition.(I do not want that)

I made extra /boot ext4 partition on unencrypted space according to the
installers` info.

I can enter some key to disable secure boot in installer.

And then after all the harrasment with entering all the necessary data
for user, encrypt keys etc. , this craps out on "can not write grub boot
or something

yes during manual install I let bootloader partition be in "whole disk"
not on dedicated EFI partition (very dubious choice solved by digging
the internet)


Pour conclure:

Time lost for nothing, unless someone really read this seriously and
suggest improvement in UEFI/Linux compatibility!
