So, I installed Atergos 18 on the EZbook pro v4, without any changes like rEFInd. I installed a Samsung 128GB SSD and wiped the windows partition. I then did the install with Systemd instead of grub2. I worked great out of the box with only the mousepad not working in the USB booted Antergos and after install. I did a “load defaults” on the BIOS and the mousepad works. I’m testing it now to see if I’ll run into the freeze issue. It’s been running fine for the past 3 days.
Hope this helps someone.
