I'm new to Ubuntu.
XPS 15 9560, BIOS is up-to-date (Feb 18).
I'm trying ton install Ubuntu 16.04/17.10/18.04beta from USB thumb drive (SanDisk USB 3.0).
But when installtion starts, it gives errors:
ACPI Error Namespace llopup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND
Cannot enable. Maybe the USB cable is bad?
cannot disable (err = -32)
I tried different USB as well as different USB ports,
and also tried Ubuntu 17.10 as well but no luck.
I could proceed to “Installation Type†(but there is no partition) after acpi=off as kernel param but then it crashes when I try to select “+†or “Changeâ€Â, so it seems like it does not help. But the partition is empty, so something is wrong.
After struggle, it seems like I needed to change “Raid on†to “AHCI†for SATA setting.
But after the change, still cannot reach installation screen or just freezes as error occurs "unable to find a medium containing a live file system" as below:
Anyone had a same issue?
How can I solve this?
Thank you.

A combination of these things might work for you:
- Change the boot mode to AHCI
- hit X at the GRUB bootloader screen and change
live splashtonomodeset - If it's a USB 3.0 USB make sure you use a USB 3.0 port
- If the USB 3.0 USB isn't working - try a USB 2.0 port
- If that still doesn't work - try a USB 2.0 key in a USB 2.0 port
- If you have no USB 2.0 ports try going into the BIOS and disabling USB 3.0 at the BIOS level
- If you can't disable USB 3.0 in BIOS then congratulations you're just as stuck as I am now

I tried with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and finally worked!
with kernel params added nouveau.modeset=0 acpi=off after quiet splash.
After installation is done, I needed to start recovery mode
and do this.
dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
