Oh no, I still got problem. I have installed Stretch with non-free enabled and was able to install then upgraded the kernel. I got some problems first seemed like something to do with power supply so I got new power supply installed today but the problem is that the system freezes at some point. I haven't been able to pin point what is the cause of the problem whether it's hardware or software... I will follow up but in the mean timen I wonder if there's anybody who is encountering problem with Kaby Lake processor with Stretch.
