boot - How to avoid UEFI? Installation without UEFI? How to have Ubuntu 19 w/o UEFI?

I need to install Ubuntu 19 on a quite recent machine.
I enabled all compatibility and legacy modes in BIOS to avoid UEFI.


I do not want to use UEFI.


The installation media (Ubuntu - ISO put on a USB-stick using dd) wants to force UEFI boot mode.
I want simple mbr and grub boot (although Lilo was so much better than grub). I totally decline to use UEFI.


How can I install Ubuntu without UEFI?
