Title:
  Installation Ubuntu 15.10 crash (asus GL752VW)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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
