The instructions for installing Ubuntu and Mint will be very similar, even instructions for installing Arch won't be very different.
The key things are preparing a bootable install image on say USB flashdisk, changing BIOS settings to boot from the USB flashdisk, then installing the system.
As you have an Intel i7 processor, you need the amd64 install image.
From the Mint post, substitute the Mint image with the Debian image.
Press F2 at ACER splash screen to get to BIOS settings. Find Supervisor password and create a password. Then, go right in the tabs and set Secure Boot to [disabled]. Press F10 to save and exit.
Reboot computer and this time press F12 to enter boot option. Select your USB (or whatever your ISO is written to) and hit enter. This should bring you to a similar boot selection screen, allowing you to choose something along the lines of “Debian stretch (compatibility mode)”. Choose this option and allow Debian to boot.
Install Debian like you normally would, however do not choose the “Boot alongside windows 10” (or whatever version of windows you have). Choose something else and follow the guidelines for properly partitioning your hard drive and installing the operating system. After everything is installed, you can restart your computer, following Debian instructions to unplug your USB and hit enter.
Once again, press F2 at the ACER splash screen and enter BIOS. You'll have to enter the password you set for supervisor to enter BIOS settings if you didn't clear it in one of the earlier steps. This time, go to the Secure Boot option again and set it to [Enabled]. Return to the supervisor password page you started on and scroll down to something along the lines of “Give permission to UEFI to run these files”. Hit enter on this option and you'll be taken to a page that says HDD0 along with possibly other options. Select and hit enter on HDD0 (assuming this is where you installed your OS. if you're not sure then don't worry; it probably is). Next, choose EFI and enter it, and then Debian and enter that. You'll see among a few others an option named 'grubx64.efi'. Press enter on this option and give it a name; I called mine 'Debian Stretth'. Hit enter twice and then F10 to save settings.
Re-enter BIOS settings for the final time by pressing F2 at the splash screen and entering your password. Go to the Boot tab and set your newly named option (in my case Debian Stretch) as the top priority by pressing F5 or F6. Now just exit with F10 and you'll be almost done.
As you have some unusual hardware, you will need to edit /etc/default/grub
You can use a root terminal and leave out the sudo
Script Edit:
Here's the most important step. Turn on your notebook, going into the newly created linux mint OS option and do all the updates in the terminal once your desktop loads (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade). Next, open the terminal and type: sudo nano /etc/default/grub Go to the line where it says 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"' and change it to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash modprobe.blacklist=dw_dmac,dw_dmac_core" On your keyboard, with the script still open, press 'Control + X', then 'Y' and 'Enter' to save and exit. Now write 'sudo update-grub' in the terminal.
