I installed many times first ubuntu then win 10 or vice versa.
Ubuntu 16.10 installation hangs when it tries to install grub.
I made the installation following last post in this topic http://askubuntu.com/questions/862946/unable-to-install-ubuntu-on-acer-aspire-es1-533 .
The problem is that you cannot put linux uefi boot manager to take over before windows boot manager.
I can boot linux by pressing F12 which brings up the laptop boot menu , where i am presented by the dialog to choose windows boot manager or linux.
If I don't press F12 computer boots windows 10.
I can see the boot order of EFi with
sudo efibootmgr
and I can see that windows boot manager is before linux.

sudo efibootmgr

BootCurrent: 0000
Timeout: 0 seconds
BootOrder: 0003,0000,2001,2002,2003
Boot0000* Linux
Boot0001* Unknown Device:
Boot0003* Windows Boot Manager
Boot2001* EFI USB Device
Boot2002* EFI DVD/CDROM
Boot2003* EFI Network

Now, when I try to change the order and put Linux boot loader to be first
with the command
sudo efibootmgr 0000,0003,2001,2002,2003
pc freezes same as it froze during installation when it tried to install grub.
I have also tested with latest efibootmgr on ubuntu 17.04 alpha
with same results.
