You have been subscribed to a public bug:

With a 27in 5k ( new as of two weeks ago) I'm unable to boot the kernel
without  parameter "acpi=off:", it also needs "nomodeset" into order to
get a working system.

The applies to both the live installer and a system installed on disk.
With out the parameters I just get a blank screen. It gives a blank
screen event if the "quiet" is removed from the kernel parameters.

The system has a 250G SSD.

I'm using the Kubutu live installer for Wily off a USB stick.
