So:
Code:Setting up grub-efi-amd64-signed (1.202.5+2.12-1ubuntu7.3) ...
mount: /var/lib/grub/esp: special device /dev/disk/by-id/ata-VBOX_HARDDISK_VBad170837-5acc172c-part2 does not exist.
I' ve done several fresh installs with Linux Lite 7.4. with BIOS and UEFI, both the same behaviour.
There are more recent issues with the same file on other distros.

I have tried some possible solutions but unfortunately this did not solve the problem. I will continue to search for a solution. I can upload my error log if that helps?
This seems to help. I did not receive an error anymore.
Found on: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1276111/...-not-exist
Code:sudo rm /var/cache/debconf/config.dat
sudo dpkg --configure -a
I got the following message.
Trying to migrate /boot/efi into esp config
