It would boot the livecd once from a cold boot, after reboot I got the same error as above and it would hang during boot, it would refuse to every boot again.
The workaround from kngharv worked fine however.
Also I discovered enabling secure-boot also worked (although you have to disable that to install Nvidia driver)
What can we do to make this work out the box on affected h/w ?
I can imagine a newbie trying out Linux for the first time on their Asus laptop and just thinking Linux doesn't work.
I had the exact same issue with Asus -> N552VW
