Trisquel 7 with the latest kernel from https://jxself.org/linux-libre/
(Jxself's repository for Linux-libre) would work... but if you cannot boot
the install medium (but is it really the case or is the support issue related
to peripherals?), well, I do not know how you would install it!
Like jorda wrote, Parabola GNU/Linux would be the best option. Debian testing
without the "contrib" and the "nonfree" repositories is OK. If you choose
Ubuntu 16.04, you can then disable the "restricted" and "multiverse"
repositories, remove the software that came from "restricted" when you
installed, and get the latest kernel from Jxself's repository.
