Hello

I just bought a asus laptop (GL752VW-T4005T), and I tried to install
ubuntu 15.10, but the installation crashed.

I can boot correctly and choose with grud to install ubuntu or to try it. But shorter after I choose one option, the installation crash.
It's kind of random , sometime it's immediatly (black screen), sometime, some lines are displayed, sometime i can reach the selection of language, but i never could go further.

I try many different things (liveCD, usbCD, with UEFI (with secureboot
or without), in legacy mod, with or wothiout fast boot, I also disabled
fastboot in windows 10, i try with a minimal image disk in command line,
and it also crash at the language seclection in the best case, and i
also try to boot with the nomodeset option for the kernel.

However, I could install ubuntu 14.04.03 without any trouble (the only thing that I noticed is that my touchpad does not work)
I installed it in dual boot (with grub reusing the UEFI boot partition of windows 10 in the SSD). I let windows alone in my SSD and ubuntu is installed in the HDD.

You can find my boot-info here if needed:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/14208400/

On the french forum, someone make me notice that a big difference
between ubuntu 14.04 and ubuntu 15.10 is that ubuntu 14.04 uses systemd.
Yet, I don't know if it the bug is coming from that ..

I can conduct more test if needed.

Edit: also, i tried to upgrade from an installation of ubuntu 14.04 to
ubuntu 15.10, and he does the upgrade, but destroy my system (upgrade
crash at the end, kernel panic after a reboot, etc...)

Also, I could boot on the live cd of mint 17.3, which is based on ubuntu
14.04
