I'm having problems installing Ubuntu alongside windows 10 on my Acer Swift 3 laptop. I've put Ubuntu onto a bootable USB, and am able to select "install Ubuntu", but after setting up the keyboard, I'm told I don't have enough space to install Ubuntu. It seems that it is only detecting the space I have on my 4GB USB drive, when I've cleared 40GB on my SSD to install ubuntu.

How can I get it to recognise my SSD?

Thanks in advance

    Most systems need UEFI update and SSD firmware update. You may need to change drive from RAID/Intel RST to AHCI. Acer also need "trust" setting in UEFI after install.
