Hello all, I've been having trouble installing linux onto two motherboards. I've created bootable usbs and have tried Ubuntu 15.10, 16.04, both 32 and 64 bits. What happens is that when I try to get to the grub menu, I get a black screen and my gpu fans start spinning out of control.

One time, I got linux to install, can't remember what version, I think it was the 15.10, then the next time I booted it up, it said

Starting init: /sbin/init exists but couldn't execute it (error- 8 )
Starting init: /bin/sh exists but couldn't execute it (error- 8 )
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

The hardware I have is the ASROCK btc pro H81.
I have 32 gb ssd drives by bwin.
4 gb.
Sapphire Nitro Sapphire 380 gpus.
Intel Celeron G1840 Haswell Dual-Core 2.8 GHz LGA 1150 53W BX80646G1840
The bootable USBs are 8gb and I'm using rufus to burn the images.


I have also had an error that said ACPI error: can not map memory that high, and then the fan spinning error thing went again
