It could have also been related to the advanced issue... considering
that you selected advanced, and then had to redo things...
Not sure....

I do hope this is related to permissions. I have not seen this error at
all, in my testing. So I am not sure how to reproduce

dmesg would have told me if your computer needed firmware blobs that
were not present. And would have installed them as well, and
(hopefully) logged everything nicely... but since there were no errors
your hardware must have been supported nicely.... that or perhaps I add
them in incorrectly and it works too well

I have indeed fixed the basic/advanced issue as well as the lack of info
in the grub-installer device chooser. I will be rebuilding these
packages soon and rebuilding the ISO. I did rebuild a much smaller ISO
recently (777MiB) but will rebuild one with the current OBI changes. I
will test my currently rebuilt version to see if the sudo issue is present.
If everything is fixed, then perhaps this will be the best ISO yet :D
