Hello,
I have the same problem like you. i have an Acer Nitro 5 AN515-42 and for Linux it is a pain in the ass to make it work.
On the Acer-Forum i've found this manual and it is working:
https://community.acer.com/en/discussion/555251/unable-to-install-ubuntu-in-my-nitro-an512-42

At the moment i am running Ubuntu 19.04 and i had a problem with my wifi working. If you experience the same problem then try this:

Both links helped me and now it seems that everything is working! :-)

Good Luck!
