[Bug 1655623] Re: can't run ubuntu on acer ES1-533 from usb

[Eduardo Justi]

The installation freezes on my Aspire ES1-533-C27U too, the only way to
proceed is to install grub manually with the flag --no-nvram.

Title:
  can't run ubuntu on acer ES1-533 from usb

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When trying to install Ubuntu 16.04 on an Acer ES1-533 laptop I get to the Grub Screen and then the process comes to a halt. The grub is GNU GRUB version 2.02~beta 2-36 ubuntu 3.1. I have been in touch with Acer but they are only interested in anything to do with windows and have no plans to update the UEFI on this machine.
  If I wait over an hour Ubuntu does load but it does not run properly. so something is very wrong.
