hey, i have a laptop i am having some trouble getting linux installed on.
i am new to linux, looking to eventually convert completely to linux and i have alot to learn.
this is my 2nd install, the first one went well.
the laptop is an Acer Cloudbook 14 AO1-431
i have tried 2 versions of linux, mint and kubuntu. both versions have the same end result, an black screen.
i tried the acpi command as well as the nomodeset command, with no result.
disabled, secure boot, and tried legacy mode as well.
compatibility mode of mint works every time, it does not recognize the emmc or touchpad, i have attempted to update drivers but it fails
i am currently using the mint compatibility mode to write this post, so i should not have an issue once it is installed but i need to get the drive to read
please help.
