Ubiquity crashed trying to install grub, the popup appeared asking me to choose a different destination or continue installing without a bootloader, unfortunately the computer was not responsive anymore -> I had to hard-reset the device and install manually. Afterwards the system worked - kind of. Whatever ubiquity does after installing grub (clean up??) was never performed, I had a couple of issues mainly with python related packages, most of them could be fixed by reinstalling them with apt. At some point however I got fed up (I tried installing at least 2 times) and installed Fedora instead... I'm sorry I can't provide more information but I was pretty pissed at that time...
