How can I install Linux mint to Acer Aspire E1-573
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
How can I install Linux Mint on Acer Aspire E1-572? I tried the following. On another laptop, I inserted USB stick to my computer. Then I typed sudo unetbootin, chose distribution to be Linux Mint and version 17.3_Live_x64. Then I installed iso to the usb stick and ejected the stick.
On Aspire, first I started it and pressed F2. I typed my password and set boot mode UEFI, Secure Boot Disabled, and boot priority order
- USB HDD
- USB FDD
- USB CDROM
- ATAPI CDROM
- Network Boot-IPV4
- Network Boot-IPV6
- Windows Boot Manager
- ubuntuCrucial_CT1050MX300SSD1
Then I put USB stick to computer, pressed F10. Selected Yes to save changes and the computer rebooted itself. But all I got was that Windows tries to install itself. It looks like the computer won't run the installation program from the USB stick. I don't understand what am I doing wrong as the USB stick contains now for example the directory isolinux and setup.exe but I though that unetbootin removes every exe files.

I think I had somehow messed what partitions the computer reads on startup. I found a way to start computer on Linux by pressing F12 and choosing where to start. Then I modified the partitions and the computer works now.
