Installing Ubuntu on Asus Zenbook Pro 14 (ux480fd)

.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I'm running into problems when trying to install Ubuntu on my Zenbook Pro 14. I want to dual boot and run both Windows and Ubuntu. So far, the steps I've taken are

Shrink Windows partition

Use Rufus to create a bootable Ubuntu stick (tried both 18.10 and 18.04.2)

Turn off Secure Boot and Fast Boot in the BIOS. I've seen other answers advising to enable CSM, an option which I can't seem to find in my BIOS.

Boot to the USB stick

Here I've tried both "Trying Ubuntu" and running the installer from there, and running the installer directly from GRUB.

Inside the installer, the trackpad only works sporadically (per reboot) and the whole system freezes regularly. For instance, it freezes after trying to power down.

When everything works, I get to the step where I can choose where to install Ubuntu. Here, only the USB stick is visible. The SSD is no where to be seen.

Any advice? I'm out of ideas. I even tried updating BIOS to see if there would be more options, to no avail.
