Installing Ubuntu 17.10 on Acer Aspire E 15 E5-575G-55F8

I have Acer Aspire E 15 E5-575G-55F8 with 2 hard drives. I want to use one hard drive for Windows 10, and one for Ubuntu:

drive layouts

I put Ubuntu 17.10 on a USB stick and booted from it. Then selected that I want both Windows and Ubuntu. The installation program wanted to reboot so I clicked Continue and this was the message I got:

kworker blocked for more than 120 seconds

Then after 10 minutes, Acer booted Windows. I tried the same again, but still the same message, and I cant see Ubuntu anywhere.

Edits:

In BIOS I cant see Ubuntu, but I can see Windows Boot Loader.

boot order in BIOS/UEFI

Seems like Ubuntu didn't get installed?

Ok well. reboot your machine once again(Before do that make sure you know the Boot Menu page hotkey). Ex I'm using ASAS, it has F8 key to Boot Menu.

As I Know Acer use F12 for Boot Order

Something similar to this

And Navigate to Boot in the menu(in above image Tab will work to switch) and select boot loader(1st) to Ubuntu and Save it.

on reboot, you can see something like this.
