Linux on AMD Ryzen 2500U powered laptop Acer Nitro 5 AN515-42-R3H6.

Tested out the AMD Ryzen 2500u based laptop on the latest Ubuntu 18.04.
Machine specs in the format it arrived here:

8GB of DDR4 RAM (1x8GB, second memory slot empty)
128GB M.2 SSD
1TB HDD
AMD Ryzen 2500U APU
AMD Radeon RX560X graphics
15.6" FullHD IPS Display, (viewing angles very fine)

Booting for install

In order to get the system even to boot i changed the grub line from

quite splash 

to 

nosplash pci=noacpi rcu_nocbs=0-7 processor.max_cstate=1

After setting the machine up then also add the keys to /etc/default/grub and run sudo grub-update.
 
 Something that i can't vouch for is the touchpad. It worked initially with linux but then suddenly disappeared and as i use external mouse anyway i wasn't bothered so far to track it down. 

 *UPDATE*
Time has moved on, on ubuntu 19.10 with kernel 5.3.0-24-generic the noacpi is no more the required workaround.
Now my kernel line looks like this :
 nosplash idle=nomwait pci=noaer iommu=pt ivrs_ioapic[4]=00:14.0 ivrs_ioapic[5]=00:00.2 rcu_nocbs=0-7 processor.max_cstate=1

Partitioning 

 Ubuntu proposed to me that let's install the linux onto the 1tb hdd instead of the windows carrying ssd. While very generous, i was going to have none of that and chose manual partitioning. Since the machine is already in the efi era you _have to_ create a separate partition for /boot/efi with fat32 , in my case i made it 300 megabytes big (doesn't really need that much). The rest i left for rest of Ubuntu as / and the terabyte hdd i will mount as a separate mount point.

Linux tools output for the common commands.
