Comments/Problems:

At the end, the installer try to install GRUB instead of U-Boot.
There was the error message:

"GRUB installation failed"
"The grub-pc package failed to install into /target/."
"Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot."

This is identical to the behaviour of Banana Pi M2 Ultra as described in bug report #974123:
