wolfman,
I followed the tutorial exactly, made a 20gb root partition, a 8gb swap partition, and the rest a home partition and the computer would not boot.
Ok, just settled on the default Ubuntu Mate settings, the system is running great now so just going to leave it alone. I know I should probably have a separate home partition but a lot of Arch users do it this way so I think it should be fine.
sda 8:0 0 238.5G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 512M 0 part /boot/efi
├─sda2 8:2 0 230.1G 0 part /
└─sda3 8:3 0 7.9G 0 part [SWAP]

I suspect it wouldn’t boot because you didn’t create a UEFI partition?.
It is up and running which is the main thing!. 
Please tick best answer so it helps others!.

Hi @kreasonos,
when I get the time; I will amend my partition guide to include UEFI in glorious colour, I have never had to do it myself yet as I have only worked on two PC’s that have UEFI but it really just boils down to making a separate UEFI partition and then the normal swap, root and home partitions!.
I did work on one further laptop with UEFI but I used the auto install function as my friend was in a hurry!.
EDIT:
I have added UEFI info to the partition guide!.
