If ubuntu is installed as a dualboot with other distro it want's to use other HDD by default when first HDD has enough space for ubuntu to use and share /boot and swap. -> has to be configured manually
When ubuntu is installed the initramfs-tools fails at the installation and then prevents the system from using apt:
root@Ubuntus-G750JS:/home/kreyonubuntu# apt install fancontrol

Ubuntu by default is unable to use GPU fan which results in overheating the GPU and possible hardware damage. Same issue on Live version of gentoo.. Related: https://bugs.gentoo.org/669818
If ubuntu is installed as dual-boot it defaults to 4.19.0-gentoo instead of ubuntu kernel. Should be fixed to use ubuntu kernel by default.
Those issues can be reproduced.
EDIT1: If UEFI is used with non-UEFI /boot partition the installation can't switch to non-EUFI version or to reinstall the non-UEFI on UEFI and keep the kernel images.
