I have an Asus D553M notebook that came bundled with Windows 8. I used GParted to clear the whole hard disk of the previous Windows files. I want to Install Ubuntu 18.04 as the only operating system.
This I have tried to no avail. I tried installing Ubuntu in UEFI mode, but the system freezes and shows a black screen after I select Install Ubuntu or Try Ubuntu without Installing. I tried changing nomodeset to 0, disabling the splash screen but the installation fails at can't disable ASPM; OS doesn't have ASPM control
.
I also tried booting using the Legacy BIOS (with CSM disabled), and even after disabling nomodeset and ahcpi, the screen freezes.
