Public bug reported:
I've tried with secure boot enabled and disabled and also tried with
legacy support enabled. All variations of those options were tried.
For Ubuntu, I've tried 13.10 on USB and CD and also 12.04 on CD, but
computer always hangs. I do get the option of running Ubuntu live or
installing. Doesn't seem to matter which option I choose. Another
screen comes up that ubuntu with "dots" that blink like its loading. I
then see some text appear but then it disappears quickly, not long
enough to read. The text looks like linux displays when booting up.
Soon as it disappears it goes to a black screen
Trying to load on a laptop peloaded windows 8. Its a HP Pavilion
