@CoolStar You have to change the bios to AHCI for the USB thumbdrive install image to boot. At least for me. I mean, we all have the same Yoga 720 15" laptop, right?

I didn't want to toast my Windows 10 install, so I resized the Windows partition to 1/2, leaving 1/2 for Ubuntu.

The instructions here: http://triplescomputers.com/blog/uncategorized/solution-switch-windows-10-from-raidide-to-ahci-operation/

^^^ how to change Windows to boot from AHCI mode.

The way to submit upstream, I think, is to fork the kernel repository, apply the patch, then submit a pull request.

Once you've pushed your changes to your fork, there will be a button on the github page (for your fork) to create the Pull Request.

If there are issues on the GitHub page, you can link to the PR with a new request.

I think you deserve the credit for getting the PR in :)
