Hi,
I am a Computer Science major who (after taking some classes on systems and architecture) has decided to tinker a little with the operating systems on my computer to better understand how they work.
I began with a computer that ran with Windows 10 and successfully removed it by running Derik's Boot and Nuke.
Then, I burned a USB with Ubuntu 18.04 and successfully installed it onto my computer as the sole operating system. Ubuntu ran fine and operated as expected.
After that, I attempted to reinstall Windows 10 alongside my Ubuntu OS. While Windows 10 was successfully installed, it appeared to mess up my Ubuntu OS.
I have since been attempting to figure out how to successfully dual-boot Ubuntu from Windows 10.
Paying heed to partitions, I have made the following progress:
I created a 300 GB unallocated partition of my SSD from Windows.
I burned an Ubuntu 18.04 iso file onto a USB drive.
I booted from the USB drive and installed Ubuntu, which was placed inside the 300 GB unallocated partition.
After Ubuntu has been installed, however, I run into a few issues.
Upon turning the computer on, I am prompted to choose between booting Ubuntu or Windows Boot Manager (I believe this interface is called GRUB2).
While the Windows 10 option still works perfectly fine, I am unable to reliably boot from Ubuntu.
I have gotten it to boot Ubuntu successfully 2 or 3 times (out of roughly 30+ attempts) and the operating system works as expected.
However, the majority of the time I cannot and I am presented with text similar to the following:
[1.084001] tpm_crb MSFT0101:00: [Firmware Bug]: ACPI region does not cover t
[1.084085] tpm_crb MSFT0101:00: [Firmware Bug]: ACPI region does not cover t

[36.044004] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 22s! [plymouthd:352]
I have attempted to find a solution online but have not been successful and Ubuntu continues to boot very unreliably.
I have a Dell Inspiron 7559 with an i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.6GHz. I'm not really sure what other technical information I should provide, but I can definitely provide it if it helps in solving the issue.
Any help in solving this booting problem is much appreciated. I would love to be able to use Linux on my system.
