I bought my new laptop yesterday it's a HP pavilion 17 177-sb i believe and it has a UEFI BIOS so I usually install ubuntu the day I buy laptops and I did that this time too. I can only boot and shutdown the OS a few times before it crashes at the gnome logo saying it stopped all the services and then the screen goes black and the windows 8 HP logo appears and it just boots Win8 perfectly fine but ubuntu won't boot I currently have Secure boot turned on(doesn't really matter because it doesn't get fixed when I turn it of) and legacy support disabled! Only a reinstall helps and it just keeps screwing it up

if someone can help me with this I would appreciate it!

thanks,

Had the same problem, solved going to the command line (press esc at the error message) and ran an update and upgrade of the system, at the restart it worked. The commands are:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade 
sudo reboot -h now
