Did you make sure to perform a HWE installation with the 4.10 kernel. You have to go through the initial menus and select it. If not it will default to the 4.4 kernel which I’m pretty sure won’t work. Failing that you will probably have much better experience with 17.04 and 17.10 is just around the corner.
Managed to figure it out and post my tutorial. I haven’t had any crashes since compiling and installing a custom kernel.

Then i was getting this ACPI issue after choosing “install ubuntu mate” from the live usb, I followed this other tutorial to get the installation to continue:
While installing i got an error at the end of the installation, i will replicate it tomorrow and will provide more details
