Problem while installing linux on Acer E5-573G-58B7!
I followed several tutorials teaching me to change UEFI to Legacy, disable security boot and other things like that.
I also have Windows 10 installed(I'll try dual boot before fully dive into linux), but I do not think it's related with my problem because the error happens in the first installation screen.
To be quick, when I use UEFI boot the screen is that:
linux1.jpg
And when I click to install(try without install gives the same error) that happens:
linux2.jpg
this black screen just stays forever and I need to reboot
Now, when I try to install with Legacy boot, that happens:
linux3.jpg
sorry about the image quality, but in this case, it doesn't show me options, the screen just change into it:
linux4.jpg
This screen stays forever too, I also nedd to reboot manually.
I was told to change acpi=off but it didn't help(Unless I did something wrong)
Well, that's it. I don't know if this problem is commom, I didn't find it otherwhere, so I'm creating a new post. I really want to get near linux, but believe me, that's becoming a lot harder than I expected
Thanks for reading that!

Pictures do not work for me, thus I have no clue what's going on there. Did you try everything suggested here: https://community.acer.com/en/discus...omment/403463/

Oh, I was running away from the BIOS(still have a little bit of fear), but that was the problem, you are very precise even without the pictures hahaha. I updated it today from version 1.25 to 1.37 and Linux is now working. Thank you so much for the help!
