So I purchased an Acer AN515-53-55G9 and I'm installing 18.04. I've run into a myriad of issues that I managed to troubleshoot thus far. I've finally gotten it installed but upon logging in the system freezes. I know the issue lies with the Nvidia GPU. Unfortunately, the grub menu is set to hidden with timeout=0. And pressing esc only gives me a grub terminal which gives me a list of commands by pressing tab....none of which I recognize. Though I've only been a FT user for ~3 years and haven't had to mess with grub2 much. I tried editing grub from the liveusb but apparently just saving the file doesn't take. So I tried sudo update-grub and I got some error about a cow, which I will add the specific error when I'm home and can view it. Could anyone instruct or point me in the right direction? Every post references dualbooting and such. However I have zero interest in windows or any other software that doesn't embrace Linux/FOSS.
