How are you trying to install Ubuntu?
Did you MD5 test the ISO you downloaded?

Thanks

Is Bionic OK (Ubuntu 18.04 due out in a fresh days)?

I've tried to install it with a bootable USB that I've created it @another PC that contains Ubuntu 17.04

Ok good, we now know that the file is not corrupted. Please use this in future (If you use torrents then the torrent protocol adds a lot of error checking so isn't needed)

Despite the error (the OS is installed from what your original post says). Does the system reboot OK and work fine ?

Nope, at the reboot step the system blocked for a while and then that message
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs disables this message

Is Ubuntu 18.04 any better?

If you force a reboot with Alt+SysRq+REISUB does the system successfully boot and work then?

By the way, the important error message is in the line _before_ "echo 0 ... disables this message".
